Chapter 2160 - 2119: Enlightenment in the Snow, Unity of Heaven and Man

Time has flown by, and in the blink of an eye, three years have passed.

During these three years, under the keen governance of Wang Xiaoqiang and Dali, the Ancient Continent has recovered from the wounds of war and has become prosperous and thriving.

The people live and work in peace, with no more wars.

This land seems like a paradise on earth. A perfect world.

Throughout these three years, Wang Xiaoqiang not only managed the Ancient Continent but also persisted in relentless cultivation. Although Ji Luoshui escaped with a Divine Spirit, he left behind a Book of Sages for Wang Xiaoqiang, which serves as an enlightenment book from the Great Sage.

With this book of enlightenment, advancing from Great Power to Great Sage Realm was not as arduous.

Because of Ji Luoshui's Book of Sages as a guide, Wang Xiaoqiang quickly integrated the Way of the Sages with the Method of Cultivation, creating numerous Magic Techniques of the Great Sage, which he mastered through cultivation, successfully advancing to become a Great Sage,

and rapidly upgraded as he continuously mastered the Magic Techniques of the Great Sage,

The Great Power Realm is divided into Great Power and Great Sage. A total of ten Law Realms. The Great Power Realm is subdivided from the First Law Realm to the Fifth Law Realm, while the Great Sage Realm is subdivided from the Sixth Law Realm to the Tenth Law Realm.

In fact, this was originally a complete realm.

The Great Sage Realm merely continues the Great Power Realm. After breaking through the Fifth Law Realm and stepping into the Great Sage Realm, learning a Magic Technique of the Great Sage means advancing to the Sixth Law Realm,

After learning two Magic Techniques of the Great Sage, it means stepping into the Seventh Law Realm. After learning three Magic Techniques of the Great Sage, one enters the Eighth Law Realm. After learning four Magic Techniques of the Great Sage, it is the Ninth Law Realm. After learning five Magic Techniques of the Great Sage, it is the Tenth Law Realm.

The Tenth Law Realm of the Great Sage is the end of the Great Power Realm. Breaking through this realm allows one to touch the Heavenly Dao, achieve Unity of Heaven and Man, and enter the Heavenly Being Stage.

In three years, Wang Xiaoqiang relentlessly persisted, mastering a total of fifteen Magic Techniques of the Great Sage, advancing to the Tenth Law Realm of the Great Sage, beginning to sense heaven and earth, and attempting to merge himself with them, striving to achieve Unity of Heaven and Man and step into the Heavenly Being Stage.

Actually, Wang Xiaoqiang could have traveled through time to the Ancient Era upon advancing to the Great Sage Realm, but he chose not to,

Having gone through so much, his mindset had matured significantly; he would consider everything thoroughly, consider the overall situation, and no longer act willfully.

First, he wanted to make the Ancient Continent the home for the Wang Family's descendants for generations to come, so he must diligently govern and build the Ancient Continent while vigorously nurturing his descendants, making each of them outstanding.

Facts proved that Wang Xiaoqiang's descendants were outstanding; whether sons or grandsons, their cultivation progress was swift. Especially the sons who were Second Generation Immortals, due to their excellent genes, were estimated to reach the Great Power Realm soon,

Moreover, his sons with the Artifact Spirit Goddess of the Immortal Artifact and Sword Spirit Zhao Xiaorou were remarkably gifted, with hopes of advancing to the Great Sage Realm within a few years and taking his place as the sovereign of the Ancient Continent.

Seeing such promising successors, Wang Xiaoqiang felt greatly comforted.

This year was the fourth year since Wang Xiaoqiang became the Great Sovereign of the Ancient Continent.

This winter.

The world was frozen and snowy.

It was intensely cold.

Wang Xiaoqiang sat cross-legged in mid-air above the Ancient Continent.

As a Great Sage, Wang Xiaoqiang's temperament had undergone a great transformation. The domineering aura of a heroic tyrant was gone, replaced by the elegance of a cultured scholar. Usually clad in a green robe, he seemed like a weak scholar,

At this moment, he sat cross-legged in the high sky as if he were a scholar, yet as he sat there, in the frozen snow, he felt not a bit of the cold, and this sitting lasted a month.

With such cultivation, he was long impervious to heat and cold, able to practice Fasting Breath Technique for such an extended period of cultivation.

He wasn't cultivating.

He was seeking enlightenment.

He was sensing heaven and earth.

At dawn, it snowed again, with goose-down snowflakes swirling all around. Filling the sky.

Wang Xiaoqiang released a Spiritual Spring, forming a Spirit Spring Barrier to shield against the snow; not a speck of snow clung to his body, remaining exceedingly clean and tidy.

Yet, within a month, he still could not sense the Heavenly Dao, unable to merge his body and mind with heaven and earth.

Suddenly...

A child's voice rang out, very immature; it was one of his young grandsons getting up early to practice the Dao, reciting the Dao of the Law… "Dao of the Earth, Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows the Dao, Dao of Nature..."

The words clearly entered his ears, penetrating deep into Wang Xiaoqiang's Sea of Heart, causing his Spirit Platform to tremble, involuntarily murmuring, "Dao of the Earth, Earth follows Heaven, Heaven follows the Dao, Dao of Nature…"

"Dao of Nature, Dao of Nature… Nature..." Wang Xiaoqiang recited up to this point, emphasizing the word 'nature' heavily, suddenly opening his eyes wide, looking up at the sky, down at the earth, then at the swirling snow, "Uh, I understand now, finally understand, my arduous sensing was in vain, it turns out the Heavenly Dao, the law of heaven and earth, is just two words... Nature..."

"Everything flows freely with the heart, heart hidden in the body, body hidden in heaven and earth, heaven and earth are nature; isolating the body and mind into nature is equivalent to merging with heaven and earth, equivalent to touching the Heavenly Dao, achieving Unity of Heaven and Man..." With a trace of enlightenment in his heart, Wang Xiaoqiang moved his will, dispelling the barrier of Spiritual Power shielding the snow, allowing the snowflakes to fall on him, letting the natural wind blow on his face, letting the natural frost invade...

He regarded himself as a great tree in this world, a part of nature, allowing the forces of nature to attach to him, gradually feeling the pain of the wind on his face, sensing the damp cold of the frost...

He did not stop; he was still sensing...

Gradually, the pain vanished, he lost awareness, he felt himself so large as if he was heaven and earth, yet so small, like a small grass of nature...

Finally, he had awareness again, able to feel the formation of snowflakes in the sky, the sound of the ground thawing, the sound of grass sprouting...

At this moment, his body and mind were one with nature and heaven and earth.

He achieved Unity of Heaven and Man.

Stepped into the Heavenly Being Stage.

As he entered the Heavenly Being Stage, as he continued sensing, one Spirit in his Spiritual Aperture unexpectedly flew out by itself, flitting around the natural world like an insect, sensing closely. At this moment, his feeling of heaven and earth was even more genuine.

Next, he only needed to cultivate that out-of-body Spirit into a Divine Spirit to advance and become a strong one in the One Spirit of Heavenly Beings Realm.

However, on the Ancient Continent, it seems, there is no Dharma Sect for cultivating the Soul and Spirit. To further cultivate and advance, he must go to the Ancient Era.
