CHAPTER 728: CHAPTER 273: HEART AND BODY UNITY, HOLY HALL’S EASTWARD CRUSADE! (PART 4)

Ji Jingqiu nodded awkwardly, and only after much persuasion did he manage to see off the old man.

During this time, Yang Yao, hearing the news, curiously came to take a look. He mentioned to his junior brother that someone from the Ji Family had called him not long ago, but unfortunately, he was in seclusion at the time, and he should return the call when he had time.

After seeing everyone off, Ji Jingqiu finally had the leisure to carefully experience the changes within his body.

"This is..."

He meticulously perceived the changes within.

At this moment, his physical body had completely merged with Heaven and Earth, the frequency of the entire planet’s vibrations aligned with the frequency of his life.

It could be said that he was Heaven and Earth, and Heaven and Earth were him.

[Heaven and Earth are born with me, and all things are one with me]

He could even feel that deep within the planet, some kind of rich vitality was being called forth by him.

Not only was it subtly altering the planet’s environment, but it was also nourishing his physical body and Inner Heaven and Earth.

It was precisely because of this that his sudden movement earlier caused such a great disturbance.

The saying goes, the spine is like a great dragon; his spine now equates to the Dragon Vein of this planet.

At the same time, his Spiritual Holy Embryo, under this nourishment, began its subtle growth.

This is the Unity of Heaven and Man, which is the human body’s channel to communicate with the universe and all things, also strengthening the "spirit," deriving wisdom from meditation!

Theoretically speaking, there would naturally be no fools within the Heavenly Person Domain, and even if there were, they would gradually "open their mind" during the Unity of Heaven and Man process. This is wisdom from meditation.

Suddenly, Ji Jingqiu sensed something, his eyes lit up, and he blurted out,

"Heart and Body Unity?!"

His Heart and Body Unity, which had shown no progress for a long time, unexpectedly skyrocketed from zero to thirty percent after a journey through the realms!

With his physique and spirit strength, this thirty percent almost equaled the complete Heart and Body Unity progress of other Heart Image Warriors.

Ji Jingqiu contemplated a certain divine change within his body, where extraordinary visions floated and sank in certain parts.

With the progress of Heart and Body Unity, his Internal Visualization began to reflect on his physical body, integrating with various parts of flesh and blood, as spirit light illuminated and nourished the body, from inside to outside, and vice versa.

Heart and Body Unity

For Ji Jingqiu, this was also a form of Bitter Sea Body Refining.

"I have been gone for over half a month this time..."

Ji Jingqiu carefully retracted his stiff posture and began calculating the time he was away.

Counting the journey back and forth, along with waiting to be "fished," he was gone for nearly twenty days, leaving him half the time before the banquet for the Hundred Veins.

"Just one time to increase by thirty percent, another two times, wouldn’t I be able to accomplish Heart and Body Unity?"

Ji Jingqiu’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

At this moment, Hel’s cold water splashed down:

"Do you think you can replicate this fortunate encounter every time? Do you really think this was just a random stroll? In my view, the final slash you delivered, that was the root cause of your Heart and Body Unity progress soaring this time; you unwittingly performed a Heaven Opening feat."

Ji Jingqiu greatly benefited this time, so he didn’t argue about these gains and losses with Lady La, contentedly began browsing through the terminal which had the latest information collected by his senior brother for him.

He originally intended to go straight into seclusion, but then he heard that the self-restrained Ji Family had actually sent out news.

Ji Jingqiu swept his mind over, imprinting all the significant and trivial matters occurring in the Federation recently into his heart, causing his expression to slightly freeze.

In these short twenty days he was away, quite a few significant events had indeed taken place within the Federation...

Among them, the most eye-catching were the six major families.

About twenty-one days ago, an internal conflict erupted in the Yang Family, and Qin Qingjue of the Qin Family arrived holding the Heavenly Blade to suppress it.

Even now, the Heavenly Blade of the Qin Family still hangs over the Yang Family!

And ten days ago, the Ji Family unsealed, everything seemed unchanged, as if it were just the ebb and flow of tides.

Ji Anquan sent him a message, asking him to contact him when he had time, with the end marked by a serious expression, suggesting a rather grim situation.

But what surprised Ji Jingqiu the most...

Was the series of messages coming from the War Control Department.

Among them included the frequent movements of forces from various realms on the Heavenly Road, the alliances and coalitions of the Wanwu Association...

And the most prominent in this series of intelligence was the civilization of the Holy Hall.

Seven days ago, the Holy Hall civilization began an eastern expedition!

"Eastern expedition... truly a madwoman,"

Ji Jingqiu murmured.

"The Holy King Lineage has always been like this," Hel sneered.

Ji Jingqiu once again reread all the intelligence to ensure nothing was missed, then he began trying to contact Ji Anquan.

...

Ji Family.

Ji Anquan sat serenely on a high platform, with a smile on his face, appearing gentle, yet the smile was shallow and cold.

"Anquan, this time it’s our fault. We are willing to pay any price, let this matter end with us, and not implicate our descendants."

Below, a middle-aged man with the Ji Family’s characteristic seal on him spoke in a deep voice.

This kind of seal could suppress a Martial Artist’s spirit, severing the Heavenly Person’s Unity of Heaven and Man, a rare talisman.

Beside him, a Ji Clan Elder said softly, "Anquan, we are all family, the blame shouldn’t extend to the next generation."

Ji Anquan’s gaze flowed, eventually shaking his head.

The middle-aged man lunged forward in anger, yelling, "Ji Anquan! Have you forgotten the clan rule that Ji Family members do not harm each other?"

Ji Anquan coughed:

"Rest assured, Seventh Granduncle, I won’t deal with you personally, I’ll just hand you over to the Federation for processing."

"As for the clan rules..."

He slowly stood up, his eyes turning deep and unfathomable, void of any warmth, his voice indifferent as he said,

"Do the clan rules permit members to engage in dealings with the Four Demons, to form alliances with powers from the Three Thousand Yanfutu?"

"Since you regard the clan rules as nothing, why use them to constrain me?"
