Full level of enlightenment: I achieved Daozu by ascending to the lower realm

Chapter 355 Second Stage
The various magical weapons returned to their master's hands.

They immediately lowered their heads to examine the changes after being refined by Ning Qi.

Everyone gazed at the newly renovated magic weapon, noticing that all impurities had been removed, its blade was sharper, and even the power of the rules it contained seemed to have become more concentrated.

Everyone's faces immediately lit up with joy.

No one wants their magical weapons to be of higher quality, and although Ning Qi just borrowed their magical weapons, he also gave them a corresponding reward.

They couldn't help but think of Ning Qi's words just now: "I will repay kindness and settle scores."

Coupled with Ning Qi's previous display of unparalleled swordsmanship, these people who wielded magical weapons couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for Ning Qi.

Ning Qi was also using these words to express his own thoughts: if you oppose him, you will not have a good outcome.

With his successive defeat of three Dao Integration Realm cultivators, everyone had a thorough understanding of Ning Qi's personality.

This guy is not someone to mess with!

Despite being only at the Integration Realm, he was already able to defeat a mid-stage Dao Integration Realm cultivator with ease.

Everyone had sharp eyes and could see that Ning Qi's strength lay not only in his ability as a Domain Lord, but also in his cultivation of countless rules.

Each of those sword techniques represented a rule, and Ning Qi's mastery of each one put them to shame.

Just like Liu Fuping, who, despite mastering the invisible rules of wind, was still silently killed by Ning Qi using the same rules of wind!

Ning Qi returned the magic weapon to everyone and flew directly towards the remaining ninety-seven Dao Integration Realm cultivators.

He stopped a short distance from the crowd, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "I was merely defending myself just now. I hope you all don't think I'm targeting everyone."

Many of the Daoist masters' lips twitched slightly.

Not applicable to everyone?

If this isn't directed at everyone, why did you make such a big fuss just now?

Oh well, the battle just now has definitely been recorded by the Realm Lord, and the Sea Ancestor will also know about it. At that time, the Sea Ancestor will definitely pay more attention to this guy.

It was not convenient to argue with him at this time, and all the Dao-Merging Ancestors wholeheartedly agreed with Ning Qi's words.

They were the first batch of Dao Integration cultivators to enter the War Realm, and their cultivation levels were generally in the early to mid-stages. If there were any Dao Integration cultivators at their limit, then that would be uncertain.

Suddenly, Ren Boping, Lang Yingying, and other people familiar with Ning Qi stepped forward.

Ren Boping looked somewhat ashamed, after all, they hadn't been of any help.

He asked, "Brother Ning, how was your trip?"

It seems that the Dao-Harmony Ancestor secretly sent a message, instructing them to act as a mediator between the two sides.

They had learned from their descendants that Ning Qi had taken the initiative to travel to other domains, and now that he had returned, he must have a lot of information.

Ning Qi didn't try to hide anything; the more intense the war between the two realms, the better.

"The northern western region has been taken over by the Haoran Realm. I think that when the patriarchs descend upon the southwestern region, they will soon be fighting against the Haoran Realm cultivators of the western region."

Upon hearing this, the Daoist priests immediately straightened their expressions.

An elderly man who had reached the Dao Integration Realm not far from Ren Boping asked, "Lord Ning, what is the specific situation in the other domains?"

Ning Qi glanced at the man and replied, "Overall, my Mountain and Sea Realm holds the advantage, but the main force in the subsequent war will depend on the ancestors."

He smiled, his face beaming.

Just as everyone was about to say something more, the energy of the Mountain and Sea Realm suddenly condensed in the sky.

They looked up at the sky and saw the enormous face of the Mountain and Sea Realm's will looming over them.

Everyone exclaimed in unison, "Lord of the Realm!"

The will of the Mountain and Sea Realm lowered its eyes and looked down at everyone. Compared with when it communicated with Ning Qi before, it had a more ruthless and indifferent feeling.

"Now that you have arrived in this region, obey my orders. I will discuss the action plan with the Two Ancestors of Mountains and Seas, and then convey it to you!"

Everyone agreed in unison.

The will of the Mountain and Sea Realm immediately issued the order: "You ninety-seven Dao Integration Realm cultivators have only the time it takes for an incense stick to burn to prepare. After that, I will destroy the boundary wall between the western and southwestern realms, and the war between the Dao Integration Realm cultivators of the two realms will officially begin!"

"!!!"

Zhong Hedao's heart was pounding.

Good heavens, the Realm Lord issued the announcement right after Ning Qi finished speaking.

What's even more frustrating is that the Realm Lord was fully aware that three people had died, yet he showed no intention of punishing Ning Qi.

Everyone suddenly realized that Ning Qi's status was probably above theirs, even though he was only at the Integration Realm.

However, there was no time to think too much now. They quickly rectified military discipline and prepared all the necessary supplies for battle.

As members of the Immortal Sect who had achieved Dao Integration, they brought a considerable amount of resources from within the sect to participate in the war.

Immediately, countless elixirs, magical artifacts, and other military supplies were distributed to everyone.

The only ones missing were Ning Qi and the cultivators from the Three Domains behind him.

There was no other way; Ning Qi and his group from the three regions were originally cultivators from the remote spiritual region of the Mountain Ancestor.

The Xuanzhen Domain originally had no immortal sects; its success was entirely due to Ning Qi's efforts.

The people from Fuyou Domain and Langya Domain, following Ning Qi, were unaware whether their own sect's Dao Integration Realm members had entered.

Therefore, it is impossible to place your hopes on these Dao Integration Realm cultivators to distribute the resources within their domains to Ning Qi and his group!

Seeing this, Ning Qi didn't care much.

Along the way, he gave everyone what he was supposed to, and also raised the cultivation levels of everyone in the Xuanzhen Domain to the maximum that each person could achieve.

As for the subsequent battle for Dao Integration, it should be divided into two battlefields.

Those who have reached the Dao level will have their own battlefield, while those below the Dao level will continue to fight each other, which will likely be even more brutal than before!
Ning Qi pulled the army from the three regions aside.

Everyone stared at him, their eyes flickering slightly.

Ning Qi first swept past the Xuanzhen Domain army and then turned his gaze to Qi Keqing, Zhu Yanchuan, and the others.

"You have followed me for many days, and now that you have attained the Dao, what are your thoughts?"

Qi Keqing and Zhu Yanchuan exchanged a glance.

There was a hint of hesitation on their faces; they knew this day would come, but it still came a little too soon.

Qi Keqing said, "Since Lord Ning mentioned that the Dao Integration Association has its own battlefield, I, Keqing, have decided to lead the army to follow Lord Ning. I wonder if Lord Ning is willing?"

She was dressed in the armor of a female general, the silver armor gleaming, and her gray hair was simply tied into a short ponytail, making her look heroic and spirited.

Qi Keqing's tone was firm and unwavering, her gaze fixed on Ning Qi as if afraid he might refuse.

Ning Qi laughed and said, "Are you selling out your own Dao Integration Realm?"

Qi Keqing was helpless.

“If they truly care about us, I think they would agree with Keqing’s approach.”

Although she is a female cultivator, she is very opinionated and capable of handling important matters.

After making her statement, Qi Keqing turned around and addressed the army behind her:
"That was just my decision alone. Anyone who wants to cross the boundary and return to the sect under the Dao Integration Command is welcome to do so."

To everyone's surprise, the entire army of Fuyou Domain resolutely shook their heads.

"We are willing to continue to follow Senior Sister Qi and Lord Ning."

Ning Qi then said, "In that case, you may stay."

He then looked at Zhu Yanchuan and the others.

Zhu Yanchuan and the others discussed it for a moment, then their expressions suddenly became somewhat awkward. They said to Ning Qiyan:
"Lord Ning, thank you for your help along the way. We are deeply grateful. However, we are cultivators from sects in Langya Domain. Now that the Dao Integration Realm has descended from our sect, we have no choice but to return. We hope you will understand."

"Alright, that's fine too. Otherwise, if both of your patriarchs come looking for me, I'll be in trouble!" Ning Qi joked.

Seeing Ning Qi's detachment from material concerns, both Qi Keqing and Zhu Yanchuan felt much better. Next, Ning Qi thoroughly arranged what everyone needed to do.

……

Southeastern War Zone.

The combined Dao of the Fuyou Domain and the Langya Domain descended upon this realm.

They arrived almost simultaneously with the Dao-merging beings from the southwestern realm, crossing the spatial gate.

To the surprise of the Zhonghe Dao, after they arrived, they found not a single descendant of their own sect there.

Sikong Xuan of the Qingxuan Immortal Sect maintained an unchanged expression, but his eyes were unusually sinister.

None of his disciples survived.

As the only Dao Integration cultivator in the Qingxuan Immortal Sect, which had only recently been promoted to an Immortal Sect, Sikong Xuan suddenly felt isolated and powerless after entering the War Realm.

Now he doesn't even have anyone to give him intelligence or instructions, so you can imagine how he feels.

"Could it be that all the cultivators in my sect have been harmed by Ning Qi?"

His first thought wasn't of the cultivators from the Vast Realm, but of Ning Qi. He didn't know if it was a case of telepathy or just a bad person's misperception.

Not far from him was the Dao Integration team of Yaoguang Immortal Sect, the largest immortal sect in the Fuyou Domain.

Sikong Xuan recognized the leader as Fang Daoming, whom he had met when Sikong Xuan was still in the Integration Realm.

However, the other party was too upright, which clashed greatly with his temperament.

As for the Daoist masters of Langya Domain, he didn't know a single one.

Fang Daoming seemed to recognize the person opposite him. He let out a soft "Eh?" and said, "Brother Tenghai, are there no cultivators from your Langya Domain here either?"

Wang Tenghai had a stern face. He was scanning his surroundings when he heard Fang Daoming's voice and turned to stare at him.

"Brother Fang, are none of your Yao Guang Immortal Sect members here?"

The two questioned each other, which made Zhonghedao nervous.

"Could it be that all the cultivators from both of our realms perished at the hands of the cultivators from the Vast Realm?"

Fang Daoming shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Among the people that my Yaoguang Immortal Sect sent into the war zone, it was Qi Keqing who led them. She is meticulous in her actions and has the demeanor of a great general. There is absolutely no way she would leave no one behind."

Wang Tenghai narrowed his eyes and said, "I've also heard of Qi Keqing. Isn't she the one who promoted peace in the mortal realm of Fuyou Domain?"

"It's her!"

Wang Tenghai nodded and said, "My subordinate Zhu Yanchuan is also capable in handling affairs, and he would never allow anyone to die!"

"Where did they go? Let's search all over this area and then meet up again in half an incense stick's time, shall we?"

"Row!"

Therefore, the first thing these newly arrived Dao Integration Realm experts did upon arrival was not to fight, but to search for the whereabouts of their sect's disciples, which can be considered a peculiar sight in the War Realm.

To avoid appearing too eccentric, Sikong Xuan searched everywhere.

However, unlike other sects that have achieved Dao Integration, he did not have deep feelings for the cultivators under his command.

Unable to find any trace of the Qingxuan Immortal Sect disciples, he felt neither sad nor upset. Instead, after arriving in the War Zone, his heart was filled with thoughts of Ning Qi.

"Ning Qi, Ning Qi, where are you? Last time, that Lord Zhan Xuan almost killed me, it must have been because of you. This time I will find you and skin you alive to avenge that day. Let's see what that Lord Zhan Xuan can do to me then!"

Thinking of the brilliant idea, Sikong Xue gave a sinister, cold laugh.

After half a stick of incense.

The Zhonghedao regrouped.

"Gentlemen, have you seen any clues?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Fang Daoming's eyes grew increasingly worried. He suddenly took out an item, a token given to him by the Mountain Ancestor, engraved with the Mountain Journey Mark.

As spiritual energy was injected, the energy of this mountain and sea realm suddenly sensed it, and a phantom appeared in front of everyone.

Upon seeing the illusory figure, everyone quickly bowed and said, "Lord of the Realm!"

The will of the Mountain and Sea Realm swept a glance at everyone, its divine eyes extremely cold.

"I happen to have some instructions for you, but before that..."

The illusory figure stared at Fang Daoming, "Fang Daoming, you used a precious opportunity to see the real me in person. What is the purpose of this?"

Fang Daoming inquired, "Lord of the Realm, we have arrived in this region, but we have not seen any disciples of our sect. May I ask if you can tell us whether they are still alive?"

The phantom image swept over the crowd.

His indifferent expression suddenly softened, and he said, "They are living very well."

"Where are they now?"

The illusory figure smiled, but replied, "You'll find out soon enough. Let's hear my decree first."

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances, puzzled as to what cryptic message the will of the Mountain and Sea Realm was trying to convey.

Judging from their expressions, everyone felt that their disciple should still be alive.

In that case, we'll talk about it later.

After receiving the order, the will of the Mountain and Sea Realm told them to wait there for the time being, saying that their disciples would arrive soon.

Everyone waited anxiously, but no one showed up.

Suddenly, they saw that a gate seemed to have opened at the western boundary.

When they looked again, they saw a figure in white robes in front, followed by a large group of cultivators.

Wang Tenghai of Langya Domain was slightly taken aback when he saw the crowd.

These are cultivators from their Langya Domain. And who is that white-clad figure in front of them?
Before long, Ning Qi led Zhu Yanchuan and the rest of the Langya Domain army to this place.

Zhu Yanchuan's expression was extremely respectful when he saw Wang Tenghai.

"Master!"

Wang Tenghai said sternly, "Where did they go? Why did you lead them around like that? Didn't I tell you that once we're in the War Zone, survival is the most important thing? If anything happens to them, can you take responsibility? Don't you respect my words...?"

As he spoke, he looked behind Zhu Yanchuan, and suddenly he couldn't continue.

"Huh, does my Langya army still have this many men left?"

Zhu Yanchuan was about to explain that it was Ning Qi's doing.

Fang Daoming, however, stared at Qi Keqing standing next to Ning Qi and interjected, "Qi Keqing, why are you all alone?"

Qi Keqing said to Fang Daoming, "Elder Fang, rest assured, all of our cultivators are here and almost unharmed."

"Where are they?" Fang Daoming asked anxiously.

Qi Keqing glanced at Ning Qi, then spoke frankly to Fang Daoming: "I'm sorry, Elder Fang, I left them in the Southwest Region for their future. I came here specifically to explain this to you!"

"What did you say?" Fang Daoming was shocked!

Ning Qi, standing to the side, did not interrupt their conversation, but instead idly observed the Southeast Region.

This Southeast War Zone was also the first war zone that his Xuanzhen Domain had entered. However, after taking over the two zones, Ning Qi crossed over to the South Zone.

Ning Qi was not surprised that the Southeast Region had now fallen into the hands of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Just then, Ning Qi suddenly saw a green shadow fly in front of him.

"You're Ning Qi?"
