Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1647 Guidance
hum!hum!hum!
With a series of booming sounds, the entire black jade arena cracked open, splitting into eight, each becoming a battle arena.

Deep within the vast surge of spiritual energy, countless restrictive runes automatically condensed, and light-shielded arenas appeared in the sight of everyone around.

"The sect competition is about to begin!"

"This competition is far more grand than ever before, with two exceptionally gifted spiritual beings participating together to vie for first place in the sect's grand competition."

The countless inner disciples who gathered around all looked excited.

Being able to witness the clash between the sect's strongest young geniuses is naturally something that everyone should be excited about.

At that very moment.

Each streak of light, radiating the oppressive aura of a Golden Core cultivator, began to descend one after another towards the outer edge of the island.

Besides the ordinary inner disciples, this sect competition naturally attracted the attention of many Golden Core elders.

Today, the Thousand Waters Spirit Sect occupies the eastern sea area, its power is awe-inspiring, and it controls vast spiritual resources. Naturally, many interest groups also exist within its ranks.

Every sect competition is a major event that attracts the attention of various interest groups.

The goal is simple: place an early bet, support a genius, and then give back to them once they've grown up.

"I never expected that Ou Hao would also be involved!"

Compared to the arena battle between the two exceptional spiritual prodigies, the eyes of many Golden Core elders were more focused on the fight between Ou Hao and another inner disciple with unique heterochromatic eyes.

They were well aware of the strength of the two exceptional spiritual prodigies, who were absolutely unmatched among their peers.

Those two appeared to be at the late Foundation Establishment stage, but their main strength lay in activating their spiritual bodies, making their combat power enough to crush all the geniuses.

"Could it be that Junior Nephew Ou Hao actually managed to repair his severely damaged Dao Foundation on his own?"

One of the tall, Golden Core elders showed a hint of doubt in his eyes.

He had personally examined Ou Hao's injuries back then, so he knew the inside story. The injuries were so severe that it was already extremely difficult for him to survive.

One of the beast's claws nearly pierced through the dantian of Ou Hao's junior disciple, not to mention the other injuries to his physical body and soul, which were also extremely serious.

Faced with such a severe injury that nearly destroyed their Dao foundation, even the Golden Core elders were helpless.

Otherwise, given Ou Hao's natural charm, there would definitely be people willing to go all out to help him and take a gamble.

"But he had no background and was not favored by any senior elder, so how did he recover from his injuries?"

It's just a matter of a breath.

The sect competition officially began.

The instantaneous eruption between the sixteen strongest geniuses of the younger generation of the Thousand Water Spirit Sect.

Above the sky.

Deep within the layers of spiritual clouds, where no one can see.

Guan Ming was continuously sharing his insights into spiritual practice.

"So it seems your choice was indeed correct!"

Li Qing smiled and nodded: "You were able to realize that you couldn't give up the Way of Water Witch before your advancement, which is a warning from your own innate spiritual awareness."

"After advancing in rank, I felt an increasing sense of perfection in my own state, which was brought about by the Water Witch's Way."

Just then, Guan Ming's face became more solemn: "Disciple has another matter he would like to ask Master for guidance on!"

"Could it be a memory from the depths of one's soul?"

Li Qing instantly guessed Guan Ming's thoughts.

"That's exactly right!"

Guan Ming nodded: "After a disciple's advancement, another huge change comes from the memories deep within their soul."

"Compared to the previous blurriness and psychedelic quality, some special images are beginning to become increasingly clear."

The next moment, a look of bewilderment appeared on Guan Ming's face: "This disciple does not know how to deal with everything that is clearly not mine, yet feels strangely familiar."

Upon hearing this, Li Qing did not answer directly, but instead looked up at the boundless blue sky.

"The sky is high and the earth is vast, the universe is boundless!"

"This world is far beyond the imagination of all living beings. Not to mention those of us at the Nascent Soul level, even those at the higher Nascent Soul level or those with great supernatural powers are not qualified to say that they can see through the vastness of heaven and earth."

"Anything is possible!"

"When I said you were a reincarnator back then, I was merely using ancient legends to give you a hidden definition within you!"

"But what the truth is, no one knows!"

Li Qing looked intently at Guan Ming: "Except for yourself."

"On your unique path of cultivation, everyone except you is an outsider, including your teacher. No one can directly tell you what the truth is. Only you can discover it yourself."

"Keep moving forward firmly, don't be constrained by external definitions, and just follow your heart!"

"."

The voices seemed to carry a calming quality, gradually bringing peace to Guan Ming's chaotic heart.

"Disciple understands!"

Guan Ming bowed deeply and said, "The path of cultivation for a disciple can only be explored step by step by myself."

"Keep remembering!"

Li Qing spoke slowly again: "Those memories may belong to you, or they may never have belonged to you. Don't let them disrupt your path of cultivation."

"Take what's useful, discard what's useless!"

"Hold fast to your principles and do not let illusions cloud your vision."

Seeing Guan Ming deep in thought, Li Qing slowly withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the sect competition that had already begun below.

But all that could be seen was one of the black jade arenas.

A tall, handsome inner disciple with long, flowing, dark blue hair exuded a powerful and domineering aura with every gesture.

The immense water-based spiritual energy nearly filled the arena, suppressing another talented inner disciple firmly in a corner.

Boom! Boom!
Two powerful flying blades danced up and down, as if trying to tear open the entire blue space in front of them, filling the gaps with boundless spiritual energy.

"Senior Brother Jiang Ye is incredibly powerful; I, your junior brother, am completely humbled!"

After several struggles, the other talented inner disciple, with a wry smile on his face, simply chose to admit defeat.

Facing this highly regarded water-type spiritual prodigy within the sect, he was almost powerless to fight back. The opponent suppressed him firmly with his overwhelming strength alone.

"Junior brother admitted it!"

Jiang Ye smiled and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect.

The immense water-based spiritual energy that had gathered on the black jade arena instantly flowed back and disappeared from his body again.

The Vast Ocean Physique granted him an absolutely formidable foundation of power. Not to mention opponents of the same level, even his senior brothers who had reached the Foundation Establishment stage were far inferior to him.

"As expected, Senior Brother Jiang Ye effortlessly took the lead."

In an instant, countless words of praise arose.

However, at that very moment, a fierce battle on another arena once again drew everyone's attention.

"That Senior Brother Ou Hao was actually able to fight Senior Brother Guo Yun head-on without being at a disadvantage!"

Compared to Jiang Ye's easy sweep, Ou Hao's performance exceeded most people's expectations.

After all, Jiang Ye is a water-type spirit and is almost universally recognized as the number one candidate in the competition, so his victory was expected by everyone.

However, Ou Hao was different. When the draw resulted in him being matched against that heterochromatic prodigy, many inner disciples had already begun to lose hope in him.

After all, things are different now than they used to be.

Back when Ou Hao overpowered many of this generation's genius disciples, most of them were still in the early to mid-stages of Foundation Establishment. Now, with the accelerated growth of these genius disciples, they are all vastly different from before. In addition, genius disciples with special physiques often have an increasingly obvious advantage as they progress.

"Could it be that Senior Brother Ou Hao has truly recovered? The various water-based spells he has mastered are becoming increasingly powerful."

But all that could be seen on the black jade arena was...

The rapidly forming mid-level spells transformed into a powerful torrent of attacks, falling towards the golden-eyed genius.

Within that seemingly small body, the golden-eyed genius continuously unleashed powerful magic, single-handedly wielding three magical artifacts to launch counterattacks.

For a moment, the whole situation appeared extremely tense and intense.

"Ou Hao!"

Above the sky, Li Qing shifted his gaze from the water-elemental genius and began to look at the highly anticipated magic genius.

He had no knowledge of this person.

After all, a mere Foundation Establishment inner disciple could only possibly catch his attention if he possessed extraordinary talent.

"To have cultivated the Dao of magic to such a perfect degree with only the Foundation Establishment stage cultivation is truly remarkable!"

Li Qing's eyes flickered slightly, and the image of the Dao Ling Sect, one of the oldest sects from the Inner Star Sea, instantly came to mind.

It was an ancient sect that was renowned throughout the world for its magical arts, and one of the behind-the-scenes controllers of the entire Star Sea's order.

Back then, in order to win a spot on the Earthly Fiends Ranking, he even had a fight with a prodigy from the Dao Ling Sect.

The next moment, Li Qing felt a surge of curiosity, and his hidden divine soul power instantly descended upon the inner disciple who was engaged in battle.

"It is not a specially concealed spiritual entity, and the lineage it cultivates is just an ordinary lineage within the sect."

Li Qing's eyes suddenly flickered.

At his current level, when he tried to probe the soul of that inner disciple who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, he actually felt like he was being spied on.

In an instant, the perfect essence of the abyss flowed forth.

The power of the soul began to grow increasingly profound and ethereal, like a faint light, probing into the depths of the consciousness of the inner disciple named Ou Hao.

Deep within the hazy sea of ​​consciousness.

A special blue light spot kept flashing, like a shooting star floating above the sea of ​​consciousness.

Upon closer inspection, the blue light spot seemed to contain countless tiny runes. With each flash, these tiny runes would combine to form different phantom images, such as sharp blades, giant waves, or phantom beasts.

"That's quite impressive!"

Li Qing looked slightly surprised.

That special blue light spot was not some kind of rare treasure, but rather something formed from a legacy.

The reason why Ou Hao can easily master this kind of magic and unleash its power is precisely because of that special rune light spot.

At that very moment.

Guan Ming, who was standing to the side, also snapped out of his reverie, his gaze becoming clearer than ever before.

"Master, could it be that that inner disciple has something extraordinary about him?"

Looking at his master's strange expression, Guan Ming asked curiously.

"This person has received a special inheritance!"

Li Qing chuckled and nodded: "It should be an opportunity left behind by the inheritance of some ancient sect of magic."

"Oh!"

Guan Ming looked surprised.

For one's master to utter such words, it is evident how extraordinary one's lineage is.

With Master's strength and vision, there are very few opportunities in the world that can catch his attention.

"Everything in the universe has its own destiny and its own laws!"

"This disciple of Ou Hao also obtained a unique opportunity of his own."

Li Qing slowly withdrew his divine soul power, no longer intending to investigate further.

The inheritance was good, but not enough to arouse his greed.

Now that he has cultivated the Heavenly Water Wheel Sea Dao Scripture to such a degree, it is obviously impossible for him to change his lineage, not to mention that he has now obtained two drops of innate spiritual water, which is the foundation for him to build a perfect Dao foundation.

"There are so many geniuses in our sect these days!"

Guan Ming exclaimed, "Compared to when I first joined the sect, there are now countless geniuses emerging in the sect."

"If I were to join a sect in this prosperous era, I fear I would become even more inconspicuous, and might even fade into obscurity!"

Upon hearing this, Li Qing smiled and shook his head.

"With your talent, you will never be just another face in the crowd."

"Even without my bestowal of the Wu Clan's inheritance upon you, you will surely gain other opportunities in the Wu Clan's path in the future. Your karma with the Wu Clan's path has long been intertwined."

At that very moment.

The great battle on the Black Jade Arena is drawing to a close.

The golden-eyed genius was forced to activate his heterochromatic eyes, which transformed into streaks of tearing golden light, dissolving the continuous magical attacks.

However, Ou Hao remained calm and continued to unleash his magic power, devising more magical attacks. In the end, with his continuous offensive, he defeated the golden-eyed genius in one fell swoop.

"Senior Brother Ou Hao actually won!"

"He actually defeated that heterochromatic-eyed genius. It seems that Senior Brother Ou Hao's injuries from back then have indeed healed long ago."

"Could it be that Senior Brother Ou Hao is really going to rise again and surpass all the geniuses with special spiritual bodies?"

"."

Just as Ou Hao's victory sparked heated discussions.

The two figures in the sky had already quietly departed.

Given Li Qing's current level, he naturally wouldn't care about the final result.

Even if that inner disciple of Ou Hao is later defeated by that water-elemental genius, it will not affect his continued brilliance in the future.

The value of such inheritance is no less than that of so-called innate spiritual beings, and may even surpass it.

Inside Qingyun Island.

A colossal silver tortoise was already waiting quietly.

"Greetings, Master, Young Master!"

As Li Qing appeared with Guan Ming, the Heavenly Star Turtle raised its head and bowed.

"Have you already hit a bottleneck?"

Li Qing smiled.

"Indeed, Master!"

A hint of excitement flickered in the Heavenly Star Turtle's silver demonic eyes: "Heavenly Star has finally sensed the restriction from the Star Beast bloodline. As long as it is broken, it can break through to the late stage of the fourth tier."

"Not bad!"

Li Qing nodded.

He must still have some affection for the Star Tortoise that has been with him since he was a baby.

"I've already prepared a promotion opportunity for you!"

"The Star Lord of the Xinghao Tianma lineage has already promised me that you will be allowed to cultivate in that dilapidated star realm. Although that realm is dilapidated, as the ancestral land of the Xinghao Tianma lineage, it should be sufficient for you to advance to the later stage."
