Chapter 368: Integration Successful!
In the middle of the Canglan Five Realms lay a large area, surrounded by four seas. However, due to the vastness of the Canglan Realm, it was impossible to see the curvature of the boundaries at the edges.
Also, the Canglan Five Realms seemed to move slightly towards the west and the south, causing the West Sea and Southern Sea to appear smaller while the East Sea and North Sea were larger.
Geographically, the general layout was like this.
“Let it be here.”
Qin Changqing chose a location on an iceberg and began to absorb the fusion energy.
The fusion energy continuously flowed into Qin Changqing’s body.
As the fusion energy entered, a wealth of experience in breaking through the Integration stage poured into Qin Changqing’s brain.
Qin Changqing seemed to be undergoing the breakthrough by himself.
While silently absorbing the energy, Qin Changqing also absorbed the experience that came with it.
Far away, Bai Ling was guarding Qin Changqing from a distance.
A few days later, Qin Changqing’s aura began to change.
Half a month later, the changes became even more noticeable.
But such changes were mainly internal, rather than external.
This was different from breaking through the Nascent Soul and the Void Refinement stages.
The Nascent Soul stage was the initial contact with the power of Heaven and Earth, while Void Refinement was a qualitative leap in controlling the power of Heaven and Earth.
Therefore, both of these stages had significant movements and fluctuations.
However, Integration mainly involved changes within oneself.
Of course, even so, the movements caused by Integration were still much larger than those of the Nascent Soul stage but not as apparent as the Void Refinement stage.
If one were to look closely, Qin Changqing’s Nascent Spirit and body were continuously merging at this time.
Integration was the fusion of the Nascent Spirit and the body.
In fact, in ancient times, there was another cultivation path after Deifying, a realm called Divided God Realm.
At that time, cultivators could transform their Nascent Spirit into thousands of incarnations, allowing these Nascent Spirits to grow independently and continuously become stronger before merging back together.
This cultivation method was once popular but gradually lost its prominence.
Because this cultivation method had one drawback.
When the Nascent Spirit took on autonomous forms, they were prone to becoming more independent and even developing their own consciousness.
Although the cultivators at that time still considered those divided Nascent Spirits as part of themselves, and their consciousness was thought of as just fragments, when they all merged back together, they were still very powerful.
But if one of the divided Nascent Spirits encountered a Heart Devil, there would be significant problems when they finally merged back together.
Furthermore, those divided Nascent Spirits with their own consciousness would also bring an impact to the cultivators themselves when they merged back together.
It would be easy for cultivators to lose their sense of self: “I am no longer me.”
The cultivation system of the past often pursued more power, higher realms, and faster progress. To achieve immortality, they were even willing to sacrifice some of their own consciousness.
Turning their Nascent Spirit into millions of different forms to grow and finally merging as one – wasn’t that just replacing one’s self-consciousness with group consciousness?
Growth would indeed be fast.
But as one grew stronger, one would no longer be oneself.
At that time, the cultivation world was even more brutal, and some cultivators had no other choice.
But now, with the continuous improvement of the cultivation system, cultivators have more and better choices and pay more attention to “self”. I, and only I, matter.
For example, there are very few cultivators who practice divided forms in the current cultivation world.
Of course, this doesn’t rule out some extremely ancient beings or cultivators who have accidentally obtained ancient methods and regard them as treasures. However, very few of the new generation of cultivators would practice this way.
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Qin Changqing was still continuously absorbing fusion energy.
The amount of fusion energy this time was quite abundant.
His eyes closed tightly, while he was also absorbing the experience that came with the fusion energy.
This step was also crucial.
The question of Heaven and Earth was filled with special fluctuations, which spread far away, but without the sweeping rosy clouds that appeared during the breakthrough of the Void Refinement stage.
However, there was now faint golden light surrounding Qin Changqing. Not only that, but it also seemed as if a stream of Lotus flowers appeared beneath his feet.
Heaven and Earth were still cheering for Qin Changqing.
Bai Ling was already on guard.
Although the area below was covered in thick ice and no human figure could be seen, she still had to be cautious.
In the blink of an eye, another half month had passed.
The changes in Qin Changqing’s body became more and more astonishing.
Finally, the strength of the Purple Gold Primordial Spirit began to reflect on his body.
Yet on that day, the changes ultimately caused large-scale fluctuations in
Heaven and Earth.
Centered on Qin Changqing, within the surrounding tens of thousands of miles, countless golden petals seemed to appear, causing the northernmost end of the Canglan Realm to burst into dazzling golden light.
Immediately afterward, all the movements were withdrawn.
The Heavenly Heart had successfully integrated into his body.
Qin Changqing’s eyes suddenly opened, the purple and gold light in his eyes slowly fading away.
A powerful aura that could make the surrounding Heaven and Earth tremble emerged slowly from his body. Then, Qin Changqing stood up.
“Boom!”
The surrounding Heaven and Earth vibrated.
Below him, the iceberg he had been sitting on, and the surrounding ice within tens of thousands of miles, broke apart in an instant, turning into endless sea water.
A massive hole appeared in the glaciers that stretched for countless miles along the North Sea Border. Qin Changqing took a step forward.
One step
Two steps
Three steps
With each step he took, a white lotus flower appeared under his feet.
Creating lotus flowers with every step, as if Heaven and Earth acknowledged his status.
After taking three steps, the purple and gold light in Qin Changqing’s eyes completely dissipated, followed by the withdrawal of all the phenomena of
Heaven and Earth.
Not a single trace of any oddities.
It was as if all of it had been absorbed into Qin Changqing’s body.
With perfect control, he could create earth-shaking power when exerted, and utter silence when withdrawn.
This area of Heaven and Earth returned to tranquility in an instant.
Integration had been successful!
With this step, Qin Changqing had also become a true Great Ability in this world!
“Rumbling!”
Dark clouds filled the sky above, signaling the arrival of the Tribulation
Thunder.
Bai Ling watched from a distance, her eyes filled with delight.
As she saw her man achieve Integration, Bai Ling’s heart swelled with pride and happiness.
She couldn’t help but recall the first time she met Qin Changqing, who was still in the Nascent Soul stage at that time.
The year she spent traveling the North Region with him was the happiest time of Bai Ling’s life.
At that time, Qin Changqing appeared mysterious and possessed a unique charm to Bai Ling, making her completely infatuated. Unknowingly, this man had grown to a towering status.
“Boom-I’
Finally, Qin Changqing shattered the last Tribulation Thunder.
With a wave of his hands, Qin Changqing gathered all of the thunder within the Zhou Nation’s Cauldron and created a Purple Cloud Divine Thunder.
During the Void Refinement stage, he could also do this, but it was not as fast as after breaking through Integration.
Then, a beckoning of his hand gathered all the large cauldrons.
Afterward, Qin Changqing’s figure flashed and appeared beside Bai Ling, a thousand miles away.
Bai Ling had not shown any sign of reaction, but Qin Changqing had already appeared.
This was the true implementation of thought, and person arriving.
As long as his divine consciousness covered an area, Qin Changqing could instantly teleport there.
This was akin to instantaneous movement..
