Chapter 271 Li Jun's Path to Enlightenment
The Great Xia ley lines continued forward.
The ley lines of the New World are retreating one after another.
It wasn't a battle, it was a crushing defeat.
It is a one-sided absorption.
The emerald green earth vein power was utterly powerless against the Great Xia earth vein.
Crush.
Swallow.
Keep going.
Then crush it again.
Then it will devour it again.
Continue forward.
The whole process was like a tiger tearing apart a sheep.
The sheep's struggles are meaningless in the face of a tiger.
During this process, Li Jun could sense that the Great Xia Earth Vein was becoming complete at a slow but steady pace.
It didn't become whole by swallowing the ley lines of the new continent.
Rather, it is a part of the Great Xia's ley lines that were originally contained within the ley lines of the New World.
That part, for reasons unknown, separated from the Great Xia's ley lines many years ago, sailed across the ocean, and eventually merged into the ley lines of the New World.
And now, the Great Xia Earth Vein is taking them back one by one.
Li Jun's mind floated within the earth's veins, sensing all of this, and an indescribable enlightenment welled up within him.
He is completely different from ordinary practitioners.
A normal cultivator begins by refining Qi, then progresses to refining the spirit and refining the void, and finally comprehends the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, aligning their own Dao with the Dao of Heaven and Earth, thereby stepping into the realm of Dao Integration.
This is a path that countless sages have walked.
But he's different.
His path to "harmony with the Dao" is not in the heavens, nor in those profound and mysterious insights into the Dao.
His path to enlightenment lies in the earth's veins.
The earth veins of the Great Xia.
When the Great Xia's earth veins become whole again, when all the separated branches return, when the Great Xia's earth veins are restored to their original state...
He will naturally step into the path of enlightenment.
He didn't voluntarily seek to merge with the Dao.
It is the Way that comes to him.
Li Jun took a deep breath, suppressing the surging thoughts in his heart.
Then he started trying.
Try to use your own power to resonate with the earth veins of the Great Xia.
Inside his dantian, the earthen-yellow bead began to spin faster.
A surge of pure energy flowed from the bead, coursing through his meridians and spreading throughout his body, before merging into the earth's veins beneath his feet.
In that instant, Li Jun felt the Great Xia Earth Vein "pause" for a moment.
Like a tiger that was eating, suddenly sensing something and stopping its movements.
then……
It "looked" at Li Jun.
No, it's not about looking.
It is perception.
The Great Xia Earth Vein sensed Li Jun's presence and the power within him that shared the same origin as it.
Then it responded.
A warm power surged from the depths of the earth and flowed into Li Jun's body.
That power was gentle yet profound, as all-encompassing as the earth.
It flowed through Li Jun's meridians, through his dantian, and through his limbs and bones.
Wherever he went, Li Jun could feel that his connection with the Great Xia's earth veins was deepening at an astonishing rate.
It's no longer that vague, indistinct connection.
Rather, it is a clear, close, and inseparable connection.
Like invisible chains, they bound him firmly to the Great Xia Earth Vein.
No, it's not chains.
It is the root.
He was like a tree, with his roots firmly planted in the earth's veins.
From then on, the Great Xia land veins became his soil, his nutrients, and the source of his power.
As this connection deepened, Li Jun could sense...
At the southern edge, the force of the earthquake striking the boundary increased slightly.
At the westernmost point, the force of the Earth's pulse striking the boundary also intensified slightly.
The same is true at the northernmost point.
At the easternmost point, the speed at which the ley lines devoured the ley lines of the new continent was even faster.
A sense of anticipation welled up in Li Jun's heart.
He began to channel more of his power into the earth's veins.
The Great Xia Earth Vein accepted it all without hesitation.
It was responding to him.
I'm cooperating with him.
I resonate with him.
At this moment, a strange and tacit understanding was reached between the person and the land.
……
at the same time.
At the moment Li Jun attempted to resonate with the earth's veins using his own power, roars like dragon's cries simultaneously erupted from the four corners of the Great Xia earth's veins.
The roar was deep and long, coming from the depths of the earth, making the mountains and rivers tremble slightly.
Ordinary people cannot hear this sound.
In their perception, they only felt the earth tremble slightly, the water in their teacups ripple, and the picture frame hanging on the wall tilt slightly.
That's it.
But practitioners can vaguely sense it.
It was a tremor from the depths of the earth, a roar that made even the soul tremble.
It's not like a sound, but more like a vibration that directly affects the soul, ignoring all obstacles and spreading throughout the world.
At this moment, the gods who have already descended to the mortal world or are still observing it from the divine realm perceive it more clearly than the cultivators.
The roar of the Great Xia's earth veins sounded like thunder to them.
Mount Olympus.
At the mountaintop, the long sword stuck in the mountain peak was trembling slightly. The blue light on the sword was brighter than usual, and the sound of the sword was clearer.
As thunderclouds rapidly gathered atop the mountain, Zeus suddenly opened his eyes.
The fluctuation coming from the east made Him uneasy.
"Earth veins..."
Zeus's voice was deep and hoarse.
"That mortal... he actually managed to manipulate the earth's veins..."
Hera and Athena, who then manifested, also sensed that fluctuation.
"Father God, that mortal seems to be stronger than before." Athena's voice carried a hint of worry.
Zeus remained silent.
He simply looked eastward, his knuckles white as he gripped the Thunder Spear.
Asgard.
Odin stood atop the temple, his only remaining eye fixedly staring at the eastern sky.
"Earth ley line resonance..."
He murmured.
"This human... can actually activate the Great Xia's earth veins..."
"Does he intend to reunify the Great Xia's geological veins and recreate the ancient Divine Land?"
Thor stood to the side, his hand gripping the warhammer, veins bulging.
"Father God, we must stop him!"
Odin glanced at Thor.
"How can we stop it?"
Thor was taken aback.
Odin withdrew his gaze and continued looking eastward.
"That mortal is currently in a state of resonance with the earth's veins, and he is stronger than ever before."
"Unless we descend in our true forms, no one can stop him."
He paused, his voice becoming even lower.
"At this juncture, we cannot afford the cost of the real body descending."
Thor fell silent.
He gripped the warhammer tightly, only to find that he could do nothing.
This feeling made Him feel incredibly frustrated.
The land between the two rivers.
In a newly completed temple, Ishtar stood before the statue of a god, her face extremely grim.
She is the goddess of war and love, and a powerful deity who ranks high in the Mesopotamian pantheon.
But at this moment, the powerful goddess's eyes were filled with horror.
"The earth's ley lines... are actually expanding..."
He could sense that the earth's energy fluctuations coming from the east were spreading outwards at a slow but steady pace.
Although the expansion is slow and is being suppressed by some force, it is indeed expanding.
"He wants to reunite the ley lines?"
Ishtar's voice was filled with disbelief.
"Has this mortal... gone mad?"
"Does he want to go against the whole world?!"
Egypt.
The eagle-headed, human-bodied deity stood at the temple entrance, gazing at the eastern sky with eyes full of apprehension.
"The earth's veins are expanding... the ancient land of Shenzhou..."
He murmured.
"If he succeeds, the ley lines of Great Xia will be restored to their original state, and then we..."
He didn't finish speaking.
But the gods behind Him all understood His meaning.
If the earth's veins of the Great Xia were to become whole again, their foundation in the mortal world would completely disappear.
Because a large part of the land they now occupy was originally an extension of the ancient Great Xia Divine Land.
If those ley lines are reunited by the Great Xia, they will be expelled from this land.
This was completely unacceptable to them.
"We must stop him."
The eagle-headed, human-bodied deity spoke solemnly.
