Chapter 465: Chapter 91 Bright Mirror Heart Completes

"You sure do talk big,"

If it were the master of someone else, upon hearing An Jing speak like this, they would certainly think this kind of talk sheer nonsense—with merely two Divine Abnormalities in Inner Strength, to dare say ’one or two Martial Meridian grandmasters are not to be feared’ would surely indicate a Heart Demon had clouded the mind and caused a loss of intelligence.

But after all, Chenyinzi is the master of Mingguang Dust, and he has long been accustomed to the arrogance hidden beneath his disciple’s modesty. An Jing was simply foregoing even the pretense of humility, which wasn’t really surprising: "Martial Army combat is different from single combat, and having witnessed martial formations, you are surely aware of their profound mysteries."

"Indeed."

An Jing responded earnestly. He had indeed experienced the martial formations of two Sects in Kanming City—it must be said that they were extremely sharp methods of slaughter. A few Martial Artists at the Inner Breath Inner Strength realm were able to withstand his attacks with top-grade Magical Soldiers thanks to their Great Formations.

Especially the martial formation of the Hong Fu Sect, if it weren’t for the leading Martial Artist being afraid and running away, An Jing, confronting him head-on, would truly have been shaken and thrown back.

And this was just a small formation with a dozen or so people, yet it was enough to enable a group of country Martial Artists, who would be slaughtered as easily as chickens and dogs by An Jing, to exchange blows with him, lasting for several moves or even a dozen. If it were a great formation of a hundred or a thousand people, able to connect heaven and earth, led by a Martial Meridian, how formidable would that be?

It might even be able to withstand a Divine Repository Divine Skill!

"As for which side you are on, with your intelligence and wisdom, how could you not understand?"

Seeing An Jing also subdue some of his pride, Chenyinzi nodded slightly: "The Imperial Court is of the Heavenly Ancestor, opposed to the Five Sects, while the Da Chen dynasty is opposed to the Dust Li nations and tribes under the Five Sects—what do the wars and conflicts among those below have to do with us, the True Transmission of the Sects?"

"So, support whichever side you like. But if you encounter people from the Zuohuan and Hong Fu Sects, just watch for a while."

An Jing knew well, but still laughed and said, "Not to clash with them?"

Chenyinzi snorted: "Kill them, ruthlessly!"

As he spoke, the elder’s tone was fierce: "Your master was ambushed by these two Sects. Otherwise, how could he have lost himself in the void?

"At present, we can’t find the true culprits, so let’s start by putting them under the knife—ha, don’t think your mentor is overly murderous. As far as I know, this partial army has come to Broken Blade Mountain mainly to stop your return to the Sect!"

"Your disciple obeys."

An Jing laughed in his heart. The old man was quite protective and truly cared for Mingguang Dust. Considering the respect Mingguang Dust showed in his words for his own master, An Jing could imagine that their relationship must be excellent.

As for the minor moves by the other two Sects, An Jing didn’t care at all and even felt quite grateful that they shared the karmic retribution and tribulations accumulated by Heavenly Mandate.

"Enough of that. Let me see your current strength."

The Divine Sense incarnation shook its head, reaching out a hand and signaling for An Jing to extend his own for a mutual sensing. An Jing was not afraid of the other party discovering anything, with Subdue Evil there to suppress, Chenyinzi wouldn’t be able to detect his real secrets.

But even if not the real secret, An Jing’s achievements were enough to astonish anyone.

And sure enough, upon this touch, even the Manifesting Holy True Lord’s expression changed slightly: "Wait, this physical cultivation..."

Chenyinzi widened his eyes as he perceived the presence of ’Proving Staunch White,’ and said in amazement: "How can this be? You possess Divine Skills already? Not yet achieving Perfection in Inner Strength, yet you possess Divine Skills?"

This Divine Sense incarnation turned slightly and transformed into an indescribably pure and dust-free radiance from within the mirror, circling around An Jing and then shaping into a hexagonal Jade Mirror, reflecting An Jing’s image.

After a good bit of fuss, the Divine Sense incarnation returned to its human form, looking uncertain, and subconsciously stroked his beard: "Strange, very strange! Your body has surpassed the common Body Refinement Martial Artists by five Divine Abnormalities. Even martial artists like your master who solely cultivated Qi might not have physical strength to match yours!"

"Moreover, I hadn’t noticed before, but your two Divine Abnormalities—how come one is Soul and Spirit, and the other is Pupil Fire? These two Divine Abnormalities have nothing to do with the body. How did you cultivate such a robust physical body?"

"Could it be that you are the young offspring of some Divine Beast True Spirit transformed into a human? Otherwise, where does this innate Divine bodily skill come from? Pah, I must be getting senile, not even the offspring of True Spirits are necessarily as strong as you!"

Although he was asking, Chenyinzi didn’t wait for An Jing to answer. He had no doubts at all and said with a ruddy complexion and spirited expression: "Good! Good! Good! I thought my foolish disciple wouldn’t know how to teach his own, and I would have to trouble myself to lay your foundation, but it seems he did not do poorly, and you have exceptional talent with a physique comparable to that of Divine Beasts True Spirits!"

"My Bright Mirror Sect is abundant in mysteries, only lacking in physical strength, yet you naturally make up for this deficiency—wonderful, truly wonderful."

An Jing had not withheld much from Chenyinzi, revealing almost everything except the Heavenly Profound True Talisman and Subdue Evil techniques to his esteemed ancestor, so he could understand why Chenyinzi was so thrilled and excited now.

It must be known that this was a solid foundation that even Immortals from ancient times like those who possessed the Subdue Evil techniques had lamented over. Any Sect witnessing him and knowing he was without a Master would, if necessary, bind him and take him back to their Sect.

As for why Chenyinzi did not inquire about the origins of other Divine Abnormalities, it was naturally because the old man was not foolish. He clearly understood that An Jing came from the Demon Sect under Heavenly Mandate and thus was a disciple with inherited skills. Given the slightly dire situation within the Bright Mirror Sect, it was naturally a bet worth taking—whether An Jing was a spy planted by the Demon Sect, or someone who could bring a portion of the Heavenly Mandate Demon Sect’s legacy and become a future star of the Bright Mirror Sect like Mingguang Dust.

Following that, Chenyinzi asked An Jing several questions about his cultivation journey, and An Jing answered each one fluently. He was even able to answer all questions about the extremely obscure Soul and Spirit Intent and ancient cultivation methods, drawing on his two enlightenments and the foundation of his immortal cultivation methods.

[Excellent!]

Seeing that An Jing’s foundation was secure and unshakeable, not requiring any remedial studies, Chenyinzi stroked his beard and nodded in great satisfaction, [I have projected my Divine Sense to come here specifically to teach you and pass on Dharma. I had thought it might take several months to fill in the necessary knowledge, but now it seems we can start immediately.]

[You should also know what is the fundamental True Transmission and Divine Abnormality of our Bright Mirror Sect. Have you made your choice, An Jing?]

"Naturally."

An Jing bowed slightly, "The Bright Mirror Heart."

[Like your Master][Every main transmission in any of the peaks of the Bright Mirror Sect has often chosen this Divine Abnormality], said Chenyinzi without exception, [How much have you comprehended about this Divine Abnormality?]

"Just a little," An Jing modestly spoke, "Last time, Master projected his Mirror Self onto me, and when I fought with other Martial Meridians, I perceived the essence and subtleties within."

[Say that again] Chenyinzi felt he might have become too old and hard of hearing, [What did you comprehend?]

"This unworthy disciple has perceived the essence of the Divine Abnormality."

Chenyinzi’s Divine Sense embodiment made a gesture as if drawing a sharp breath.

A True Lord with a lifespan of a thousand years, what geniuses and prodigies had he not seen? He was long past the point of being startled or astonished by trivial things, let alone losing composure.

But he had never seen a freak like An Jing.

Chenyinzi did not believe An Jing was deceiving him, but with a voice tempered to hide his excitement, he earnestly asked, [Could you show me?]

An Jing raised his hand, his bones subtly shifting, his gaze intensifying. A robust Essence Qi surged between his sinews and organs, converging within his heart before releasing through his hand. In an instant, layers of Gold Fiend Thunder Light swirled in his palm, coalescing into a round and rolling Thunderbolt Pill Pellet.

This Thunder Pellet, once thrown, had a power comparable to a Thunder Talisman carefully crafted by Qi Refinement cultivators of great Sects in the Tianyuan Realm. It was a newly comprehended skill from An Jing’s Five Soldiers True Thunder Method after he meditated on the Divine Thunder True Intent, and now, driven by Pill Intent, the control was even more effortless.

[Unimaginable...]

Chenyinzi exhaled deeply, unfazed by An Jing’s mastery of Thunder Method. Although he was unaware of Endless Heavens, he did know about his disciple’s relationship with the Central Continent’s Dragon Lady. An Jing’s transmission of this method proved that this disciple and his disciple were truly from the same mold.

As for the essence that An Jing had comprehended... Chenyinzi felt that he could no longer be shocked, to the point where he even doubted why he had risked so much to project his Divine Sense into Da Chen—what could he even teach? Hadn’t An Jing already self-taught everything?

[...You can now immediately attempt to condense the Bright Mirror Heart]

Collecting himself, Chenyinzi said solemnly, [My Divine Sense is here, find a secluded place for seclusion. Within two days at most, you should be able to concentrate and complete your Divine Abnormality. After that, I will transmit to you the true power of our Bright Mirror Sect’s Martial Meridian ’Void and Self Traveling Spirit Chapter’]

An Jing, always heeding the advice of his elders, returned immediately to his own courtyard and entered seclusion for cultivation.

An hour later.

[This...]

Rubbing his beard somewhat bewilderedly, Chenyinzi looked at An Jing, who had already condensed the Bright Mirror Heart, and though he knew the fact was as such, he still unconsciously asked, [You... did you really succeed?]

And An Jing, refreshed and radiant, smiled and bowed, "Thanks to the excellent guidance of Grandmaster, this disciple has had a smooth journey and has indeed achieved success!"
