Chapter 835: Thirty Years, The Great Sun Nascent Soul Secret Art is Completed

Jiang Ding kept his ears closed to the world outside, focusing entirely on healing his injuries, researching the Great Sun Nascent Soul Secret Art, and teaching; aside from these, he rarely engaged in other matters.

Year after year,

Day after day.

The students of Taiyi Qingmu University came and went, gradually growing accustomed to Teacher Jiang of the Adult Sword Dao Department and the Great Sun Ruins major, becoming so used to his presence that it felt as though he had been there since their birth and would remain forever, with no changes ever to occur.

In his hometown of Rongcheng, Jiang Ding rarely returned.

Perhaps, many years later, just like Shenmu Canghai Tianjun, Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun, and others, everything of his would be forgotten by the world and buried by time, leaving only titles such as "the old monster of Taiyi Qingmu University" or "the Great Sun Master Dinghai Zhenjun of Taiyi Qingmu University" in the mouths of the younger generation.

No one would ever know again that he once came from the hometown of Rongcheng; his past would be drowned by the years, unknown to all.

This peaceful yet busy time passed, unknowingly, for thirty years.

On this day, beneath the dim radiation clouds.

A youth in green robes opened his eyes; the aura on his body gradually strengthened, rose upward, and reached its limit.

"The injury is healed."

"It was not easy; in the future, such acts of burning essence blood should be done as little as possible."

Jiang Ding sighed.

After thirty years of constantly nurturing his magical body and nurturing his divine soul, repeatedly confirming, he finally restored his body to its peak once more.

"And this one is completed."

Jiang Ding opened a paper and carefully admired it.

"Great Sun Nascent Soul Secret Art - Application of Wan Hua Ci Yuan" by Jiang Ding; Zhang Zhang Junsheng; Sword Dao Hall Laboratory; Taiyi Qingmu University of the Immortal Sect, Cultivator Report.

"This paper was only given me 0.5 points!"

"They actually won't let me publish it in the top-tier magazine 'Cultivator'!"

After admiring it for a while, Jiang Ding said somewhat indignantly: "Those people on the Academic Committee are truly blind; they do not understand how great a masterpiece this is, nor how important its significance is."

"This is the beginning of the Immortal Sect Sword Dao in the Nascent Soul realm!"

"Forget it, forget it; I won't argue with them."

"Geniuses are always lonely; great articles that transcend the era are only recognized by the world after many years, when their historical status is understood. This is the sorrow of this genius leading the era by ten steps..."

Jiang Ding comforted himself.

It was like a child he had carefully prepared for, invested countless efforts into, and finally gave birth to, only to have someone say it was not good.

"Next is to wait for Master Master Dinghai's 'Nine Heavens Ascending Immortal Sword Casting Art' over there; about thirty years, it will be very soon."

Jiang Ding admired his article once more, reluctantly closed it, stood up, and left the Great Sun Ruins Laboratory, weaving through the forest layers of the Shenmu Shenmu Futianrong trees, which stood as high as mountains and seas.

Decades passed, and changes occurred in the outside world as well.

Senior Sister Wu Wu Mengsha, after years of preparation, was finally ready to step into the Nascent Soul realm.

The purpose of Jiang Ding's journey was to attend the ceremony.

Regarding this, he very much hoped Wu Wu Mengsha would succeed in her advancement, so she could share his position as professor of the Great Sun Ruins major, allowing him more time to devote to cultivation and sword dao exploration and research.

When Jiang Ding arrived at Wu Wu Mengsha's Tribulation Crossing location, there were already quite a few people there.

Teacher Gu Lin, True Person Teacher Ouyang Hui, An Siyan, Jin Jin Lingfeng... and several hundred others, their realms perfectly uniform, all at the peak of the Jin Dan realm, without a single exception.

This was also an old tradition of the Immortal Sect: whenever a cultivator underwent Tribulation Crossing, a group would gather to watch.

This was a right and an obligation.

One could watch others undergo Tribulation Crossing at will, and others could watch one's own Tribulation Crossing at will; it was mutual.

It was quiet here; everyone communicated via divine sense transmission, trying to use the slightest divine sense fluctuations to avoid disturbing the person undergoing Tribulation Crossing.

"... Nascent Soul formation is nothing more than the Jin Dan shattering to form a Nascent Soul; just as a human carries a child for ten months and tears off the fetal membrane to achieve a Nascent Soul, this process is the most perilous, testing one's control of magic power, the foundation and depth of one's magic power, and one's luck..."

"... and also heart demons and the like..."

"... The Nascent Soul is known as the Dharma Image; below three inches is a Lower Grade Nascent Soul, three to six inches is a Middle Grade Nascent Soul, above six inches is an Upper Grade Nascent Soul, eight inches is an Exquisite Nascent Soul, and nine inches is a Dao Principle Nascent Soul, with a Heaven and Earth Divine Halo behind the head..."

"If everyone has the spare capacity, they should try their best to let their newly formed Nascent Soul absorb as much Yin-Yang Creation Qi from the Jin Dan as possible to grow; this relates to the assistance for future Soul Transformation."

"... Know that once the size of the Nascent Soul is set, it cannot change; future cultivation only changes the intensity..."

True Person Gu Lin was discussing softly with someone.

She had been at the peak of the Jin Dan realm many years ago, and she still is; she has been accumulating foundation all along, and her purpose is not concealed: she hopes to achieve a Dao Principle Nascent Soul.

In this aspect, there is a gap between the Immortal Sect and the Immortal Sects.

The Dao Disciples of the Immortal Sects are certain to achieve a Dao Principle Nascent Soul; this is the result of cultivation since childhood.

The Dao Disciples of the Immortal Sect are uncertain; in the future, they will gradually fail to keep up with the Dao Disciples of the Immortal Sects; this is a gap in foundation.

The surrounding Jin Dan cultivators looked at True Person Gu Lin with eyes full of respect.

True Person Gu Lin's research on Nascent Soul formation was divine and magical, and she was very enthusiastic; whenever a Jin Dan cultivator of the Immortal Sect asked, she did her best to explain, solving major difficulties on the path of the Dao for many people.

"This..."

"... trying to absorb as much Yin-Yang Creation Qi as possible... how easy is that..."

A Jin Dan peak cultivator, seeing Jiang Ding arrive, instantly raised his divine sense voice a bit and sighed mournfully: "The Yin-Yang Creation Qi takes shape at the moment of Jin Dan formation, constantly growing until it is truly nurtured out at the peak of the Jin Dan.

Ordinary Jin Dan cultivators possess only one strand of Yin-Yang Creation Qi, and many Jin Dan cultivators do not even have one; they are incomplete and naturally unable to form a Nascent Soul."

"Those of us who cultivate through high-grade Gong Fa have only six or seven strands of Yin-Yang Creation Qi; achieving an Upper Grade Nascent Soul is uncertain, and for more, we simply lack the spare capacity..."

If Jin Dan peak cultivators from before the Realm Wars heard their words, they would surely have clicked their tongues in secret.

Upper Grade Nascent Soul!

They did not even look at ordinary Nascent Souls, acting as if they were only pursuing an Upper Grade Nascent Soul and would not stop until they achieved it; their arrogance was terrifying.

This was the war dividend.

Compared to the past, for every person who participated in the war and Li Xia Gong, their opportunity to form a Nascent Soul increased by at least ten times, with some even increasing by dozens of times; the probability of achieving a Nascent Soul was far greater than in the past.

"Then, um,"

"Is there any way to increase the innate Qi of Jin Dan creation?"

Everyone looked at An Siyan and Jin Jin Lingfeng with urging gazes. After a moment, An Siyan adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, looked somewhat embarrassed, and asked in a stuttering voice.

Jiang Ding was speechless.

"Naturally there is!"

"The innate Yin-Yang Qi of Jin Dan creation is generally born with one's birth; it is the condensation of a cultivator's personal Dao foundation and is almost impossible to alter after birth."

True Person Gu Lin, expression unchanged, quickly interjected.

"But it is still possible to change it."

"For instance, the Yin-Yang Void Realm, jointly calculated by the Jiudaxian Sect to aid the growth of their Dao Heirs."

"This is a cosmic miracle within the realm, a world in its embryonic form that is constantly being born and destroyed. It appears once every thirty thousand years. It contains innate Yin-Yang Qi of creation; if one can absorb it, the Jin Dan foundation can increase out of thin air with ease."

"Over the past several hundred thousand years, the continuous emergence of Nascent Soul experts from the Jiudaxian Sect is largely due to the Yin-Yang Void Realm."

True Person Gu Lin's smooth, ink-green hair danced in the wind. His skin was snow-white, his eyes large and spirited, and he looked at the youth in green robes before him with a smile.
