Incredible Insight: Cultivating Immortality at Eight, Astonishing Zhang Sanfeng-Chapter 174
Chapter 174
If Huang Rong, with her spiritual constitution, could comprehend it effortlessly, then for Ning Changge—who practiced the Immortal Dao, whose body was filled with mana, and who possessed unparalleled comprehension—it was even easier.
“This Tai Xuan Scripture is indeed designed for those with spiritual constitutions. My instincts were correct,” Ning Changge thought, his interest piqued.
Spiritual constitutions, as he theorized, were akin to spiritual bodies within the Immortal Dao. Such individuals were naturally suited for cultivation.
He had once wondered:
If these individuals reached the Heaven-Man or Land Immortal realms and became attuned to the forces of heaven and earth, could they then step onto the path of the Immortal Dao?
Given the vast population of the Nine Provinces, even a small percentage of spiritual constitutions would amount to a significant number. If these individuals could enter the Immortal Dao, it should have already appeared in the Nine Provinces.
But it hadn’t.
There had to be some barrier preventing them from stepping onto the Immortal Dao.
“Perhaps I can find the answer here,” Ning Changge thought, his gaze fixed on the stone wall.

Before him, the Sword Dao Essence began to reveal itself.
The Tai Xuan Scripture, designed specifically for spiritual constitutions, was a martial art that bridged the gap between martial arts and the Immortal Dao. However, it still belonged to the realm of martial arts. Ning Changge surmised that only by mastering the Tai Xuan Scripture to the Land Immortal level could one activate the Sword Dao Essence left by the Celestial Sword Immortal.
For Ning Changge, however, there was no such limitation.
With a single point of mana, he activated the essence. The sheer density of his mana was far beyond what the Tai Xuan Scripture could achieve. It was an overwhelming display of power.
In an instant, a blue lotus began to bloom before him.
Layer upon layer, its petals were formed of sword energy and sword intent, radiating endless sharpness and profound mysteries.
This was the true legacy of the Celestial Sword Immortal—the Blue Lotus Sword Canon!
Ning Changge’s eyes gleamed with divine light as inspiration surged through him. The insights he had gained from the Tai Xuan Scripture now reached their peak. The sword energy lotus before him provided a clear direction.
Around him, five-colored light shimmered. The Five Elements Spiritual Tree within him swayed.
The Five Elements Spiritual Swords emerged from his body, circling him and humming softly. Projections of the swords appeared, multiplying until they formed a lotus with ninety-nine petals.

Ning Changge opened his eyes, a look of satisfaction on his face.
The Five Elements Sword Lotus was the fruit of his enlightenment.
By using the Five Elements Spiritual Swords, their projections, and their sword energy to construct a lotus, he had created a technique of unparalleled power. It surpassed the Celestial Sword Immortal’s sword energy lotus, incorporating the transformations of the Five Elements and holding infinite potential.
The lotus was both a symbol of the Dao and a manifestation of his sword Dao.
Taking this opportunity, Ning Changge consolidated his sword Dao techniques into a single Five Elements Sword Canon.
This canon included several techniques: the Five Elements Divine Sword Qi, the Five Elements Sword Formation, and the Five Elements Sword Control Technique, which had evolved from the Xiaoyao Sword Control Technique.
It was a comprehensive refinement of his path.
A smile tugged at Ning Changge’s lips.
The trip to Xia Ke Island had been immensely rewarding.
The Celestial Sword Immortal’s path was already close to the Immortal Dao, providing Ning Changge with invaluable inspiration. This journey had been well worth it.
However, his gaze lingered on the stone wall.
At the moment he created the Five Elements Sword Lotus, a faint blue light began to emanate from the wall, growing brighter.
Meanwhile, the others were awestruck by the phenomena before them.
First, five-colored light had radiated from Ning Changge. Then, the Five Elements Spiritual Swords had emerged, forming projections and sword energy that coalesced into a ninety-nine-petaled sword lotus. The sheer profundity of the lotus was enough to inspire reverence.
The manifestation of the ultimate truth of the sword Dao left the Dragon Island Master in a daze, his mind reeling as if struck by thunder.
As a Land Immortal specializing in the sword Dao, he could sense the terrifying power of the sword lotus more acutely than anyone else.
All eyes were on Ning Changge.
They weren’t fools. It was clear that Ning Changge had comprehended something extraordinary—something terrifying.
The crowd was filled with awe.
What kind of monster was this?
Before they could recover, the stone wall underwent another transformation. Their eyes widened as faint blue light emerged from the wall, growing stronger.
In the midst of their disbelief, a figure materialized from the wall.
Clad in a blue robe, his eyes held the weight of millennia, evoking a sense of endless cycles of time.
His presence was transcendent.
The Dragon and Wood Island Masters were dumbstruck. The Dragon Island Master stammered, “It’s… it’s the Celestial Sword Immortal!”
The Celestial Sword Immortal, Li Taibai, had appeared!
Waves of emotion surged through the crowd.
A figure from 3,000 years ago—how could he possibly appear now? It defied all logic.
Huang Rong noticed something amiss.
“This isn’t the Celestial Sword Immortal’s true body!” she exclaimed.
The crowd turned to see that the blue-robed figure was semi-transparent, his feet not touching the ground. He glanced approvingly at Huang Rong.
“Indeed. This is merely a projection of my Sword Dao Essence. After this, it will dissipate, and the Celestial Sword Immortal will no longer exist in this world.”
He could see that Huang Rong shared his unique constitution.
