Chapter 164 - Inside The Body Of The Godly Spirit (1/2)

The godly spirit of Swords Gate?

Zhong Yue was slightly shocked by the words of the headmaster. One of the two strongest spirits possessed by the Swords Gate was the sword spirit nurtured by the mountain of Swords Gate, engendered by human worship towards the Swords Gate!

The other one was the soul of the first headmaster of Swords Gate!

And it was because of the protection of these two spirits that the Swords Gate was able to maintain its hegemony in the Wilderness for such a long time.

Previously, the lord of Sulphur Island and Jinxiu Island had brought their respective spirits from their islands and tried to break the seal in the Beast God Ridge. Those spirits were already considered very high level spirits.

But the two spirits of Swords Gate were on the level of Gods!

These two godly spirits possessed immense power that could bring about wanton destruction upon activation! Other than that, these two spirits were also the last line of defense for the Swords Gate and the Great Wilderness. The fact that humanity had been able to maintain its position within the Great Wilderness for such a long time is mainly attributed to the existence of these two spirits.

However, the other races also possessed such godly spirits of their own, making humanity unable to have any advantage over them, resulting in a tenuous stalemate among the various races.

Previously when Zhong Yue and 'Shui Qingyan' had both gotten first place of the disciples of the outer hall, the spirits provided by the Swords Gate for them to consummate with were these two types of spirits. And 'Shui Qingyan' had obtained the godly spirit!

Tian Myriad Mother died in the hands of the first headmaster and in a twist of fate, she ended with the first headmaster's godly spirit. Could it be that she wants to investigate the secrets hidden in the Swords Gate's godly spirit?

Initially, he thought, 'Shui Qingyan' simply picked a spirit but now, it seemed like the girl's motives were not that simple!

The old man took him the to the centre of the palace and in the palace, a majestic and divine aura could be felt everywhere. Zhong Yue looked up and he saw a bright light orb on the altar that was incredibly huge!

In the orb, a majestic figure could be seen faintly. It was a spirit and it remained here for a long time under the worshipping of humanity in the Great Wilderness.

Whenever the humans paid obeisance to it, the power of their faith would distill into an ethereal power that bound his soul to the orb, preventing it from dispersing forever. However, if humanity were to ever stop worshipping it, it would soon fade away to nothingness.

This godly spirit too, had opened the divine third eye and stood there with sword in arms. He stood in the orb and the lights were emitted by the godly spirit as if they were Sword Qi.

"I will take you into the body of the godly spirit and show you how to reverse open the five secret realms."

As he finished talking, the old man prayed at the Swords Gate's godly spirit and the body of the godly spirit suddenly trembled. Then, a sound could be heard and a light wheel appeared and floated behind the godly spirit.

Weng weng weng——

Five light wheels emerged, each bigger than one another, hooking with each other and they aligned behind the back of the godly spirit!

Zhong Yue also immediately realized that the most colorful and attractive light wheel was not the first one that appeared behind the back of the godly spirit. The first wheel that appeared behind its back was a very simple light wheel. It appeared to be very heavy and it was also the smallest among the five wheels but Zhong Yue felt that this wheel was the strongest of all!

"Let's go!"

The old man started advancing and he walked into the middle of the five light wheels.

Zhong Yue quickly followed behind him. The outermost light wheel was a few ten feet large and upon entering it, Zhong Yue saw various attractive lights floating around him. The lights also seemingly crystallized into tangible form, giving him a feeling that he could actually touch them.

As he entered this Wu Xing Wheel, it felt as if he needed to walk a few ten miles before he was able to enter the second light wheel – the Wan Xiang Wheel.

Together with the old man, the pair walked two to three hundred miles and they stopped in front of the Swords Gate's godly spirit. Zhong Yue looked closely and he saw light rays being emitted by the body of this godly spirit. The five wheels were a scene formed by the light rays emitted by the godly spirit!

And the sources of these light rays were the five secret realms hidden within the body of the godly spirit!

The Wu Xing Wheels, Wan Xiang Wheels, Shen Cai Wheels, Yin Yang Wheels and the Dao Yi Wheels were thus the projection of the godly spirit's strength!

Zhong Yue was shocked as all of this went against the knowledge he had all along. He thought,  the Wu Xing Wheels were cultivated by the Qi Practitioners but in truth, they and the other wheels, were projections of the power of their respective secret realms in the body of a Qi Practitioner!

The old man then continued to walk and Zhong Yue followed tightly behind as they walked past all sorts of light rays that were gathered in front of them.

Not long later, the old man and Zhong Yue entered the body of this Swords Gate's godly spirit and when Zhong Yue looked up, he finally saw the full view of the Wu Xing, Wan Xiang, Shen Cai, Yin Yang and Dao Yi secret realms!

"Zhong Shan Clan's member, the Yuan Shen is not your body, it has no flesh and no organs and the Wu Xing secret realms correspond to the five internal organs of your body."

The old man pointed out and said, "Look at this Wu Xing secret realm and the position of the secret realms. Their locations are all corresponding to the positions of those five internal organs in a human's body."

Zhong Yue closely scrutinized this godly spirit, which was also the Yuan Shen of the first Swords Gate's headmaster. He saw no flesh, no bones, and no organs in this godly spirit – it was a manifestation of pure energy.

The five organs of this godly spirit were all replaced by the Wu Xing secret realm!
