Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree-Chapter 268 - 151: Curses Surround the True Self, Divine Temple Offers Aid_3

"His True Self has created a backlash against his mortal body," Qingyang spoke gravely to Shi Xuanzhen: "You go to the secret vault yourself, retrieve a dose of [Thousand-year-old Sky Blue], and assist your Junior Brother Ji in consolidating his foundation and nourishing his primordial energy."

Hearing [Thousand-year-old Sky Blue], even with Shi Xuanzhen's composure, he couldn't help but show a change in expression, hesitating for a moment; his was a major tonic used by the Heavenly Masters in the dojo for healing injuries, harvested from deep within the Heavenly Road.

After another glance at Ji Jingqiu's condition, Shi Xuanzhen no longer hesitated: "Your disciple is on his way."

After Shi Xuanzhen left, Qingyang remained silent, carefully observing Ji Jingqiu's state at the moment.

In his perception, Ji Jingqiu's Power of the Spirit was soaring high, yet his True Self was inexplicably riddled with scars, completely beyond comprehension.

What on earth had happened to this youngster?

When Ji Jingqiu came to, he found his body in pain as if being pricked by needles, which sank his heart because this pain was extremely similar to his previous affliction with the Evil Poison Disease.

He had just attempted to break the confines of the curse net, but the situation was much worse than he had thought, directly affecting the curse net and causing injury to his True Self.

He finally understood why, after entering Martial Arts and successively achieving breakthroughs such as Heavenly Person Six Limits, the symptoms of his Evil Poison Disease had improved.

Essentially, it was the enhancement of his True Self, gradually stabilizing its foothold in the fight against the curse, no longer simply being suppressed.

But if he wanted to reverse Innate... he had to completely sever the bonds of the curse net, allowing his True Self to truly escape the cage and be reborn.

At this very moment.

Ji Jingqiu entered meditation again, running the Fire House Buddha Hell Visualization Method, combining it with the nascent control over his physical body by the dojo, he managed to suppress the piercing pain.

After opening his eyes, before him were Qingyang and Senior Brother Shi.

"Pour it into him," Qingyang did not engage in unnecessary talk nor did he give him the chance to refuse, and directed Shi Xuanzhen to administer the medicine,

Shi Xuanzhen smoothly complied, forcibly prying open Ji Jingqiu's mouth to pour in the [Thousand-year-old Sky Blue] he held.

The icy liquid entered his mouth, and before Ji Jingqiu could inquire what it was, he felt something intangible and formless filling his "body."

Ji Jingqiu's expression grew solemn.

He could distinctly feel the intangible force repairing his True Self!

And the value of a secret medicine that could enhance one's True Self was self-evident.

Seeing Ji Jingqiu's state gradually stabilize, Qingyang's expression eased, and after giving Ji Jingqiu a deep look, he rose to leave, leaving only these words:

"I will be staying at the Four Guardian Stars for a while, come find me if you have any problem."

Shi Xuanzhen did not leave; with a serious face, he asked what exactly had happened and if it could be discussed.

Ji Jingqiu fell silent for a moment.

After listening to the Divine Lord's words last time, he had a premonition that reversing Innate might be the first major challenge on his Martial Arts path, as well as a matter of life and death.

It was either to be reborn, cutting off past constraints;

Or to be pulled back into the mire of misery;

It all hinged on this one step.

In theory, no one could help him with this step, not even the Divine Lord. Like in the past sixteen years, the only thing he could rely on was himself.

"Senior Brother, it's nothing, just a small issue," Ji Jingqiu consoled Shi Xuanzhen, pausing briefly, his tone plain but revealing firmness, "I will solve it."

Shi Xuanzhen nodded slowly, silent for a while and then said, "Regarding the order of entry for the exchange competition, another person is also interested in the opening battle. According to the Federation's high levels, you two will first decide the winner amongst yourselves; whoever wins will take charge of the first battle."

Ji Jingqiu raised an eyebrow: "Who is that person?"

"Fei Ziqing," said Shi Xuanzhen, "This person comes from the Sun and Moon Dojo, which became enemies with our Dragon Tiger Dojo three hundred years ago, and the feud continues to this day."

At this, Shi Xuanzhen looked apologetic and said, "This person should originally have been dealt with by me, but I didn't expect him to come after Junior Brother you first."

Ji Jingqiu flashed a toothy smile and said, "It's fine, what are we Senior and Junior Brothers for? I'll suppress him for you on the way."

Shi Xuanzhen spoke solemnly: "This person has been selected to participate in the exchange competition, which proves his strength is among the top of the Bright Moon Martial Artists in this generation. I have investigated; he managed to push his Cultivation Body to 99.9% half a year ago, and now he probably already has successfully fostered a Dharma Body Domain."

Ji Jingqiu spoke lightly, "A Law Domain is but the nascent form of a dojo's predecessor; what I have understood is already far ahead of my peers."

Shi Xuanzhen was left speechless for a moment.
