Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 761 - 321: The Three Immortal Sects of Langya

With the Soul-Searching Plate in hand, Ning Qi dashed through the War Domain all by himself, moving at great speed.

Qi Keqing from the Fuyao Realm received a simple compass from him, limited to basic uses, while the old compass went to the Sword Ancestor, who was told to guide the Profound Truth Realm forces in capturing key nodes.

Soon after, Ning Qi forged another Soul-Searching Plate just for his own use.

From the merged powers of two realms' Sea of Realms came the creation of the War Domain.

Inside it, three kinds of energy surged without end, clustering into spots of small, medium, or large nodes where the density peaked.

By sensing the energy's vibrations, Ning Qi upgraded the compass's capabilities.

After thinking it over, he resolved to enhance the compass beyond just spotting node positions—it would also track cultivator locations.

Naturally, he aimed high for this addition, so only a Domain Master's presence or an entire army's might would show up on the device.

These count as shifting energy streams in the War Domain, popping in and out freely, which turns this upgrade into a tough feat to pull off.

Even so, Ning Qi knew he'd master it in time, granting him what felt like a divine eye overlooking the whole War Domain.

Using the space-shifting divine technique over and over, Ning Qi leaped across the domains.

He took a quick look at the Soul-Searching Plate.

No longer did it look like any ordinary compass; now it resembled a radar screen.

From his current spot at the center, five dots lit up on the display.

Three of those marked close-by nodes, fixed in place without moving.

The remaining pair shifted about: one showed Qi Keqing commanding the Fuyao Realm troops, the other the Sword Ancestor directing the Profound Truth Realm forces.

At a moment's notice, Ning Qi could shift to their spots, letting him roam solo without a worry.

Right now, those two forces advanced on a pair of nearby nodes, but Ning Qi veered off toward a separate one.

Hiding his aura, he jabbed at the empty space before him, sending ripples across the void like disturbed waves, and dove right in, vanishing in a flash.

It wasn't long before a faint ripple stirred in the void close to his chosen node, and out stepped Ning Qi.

Hovering there in emptiness, he extended his spiritual sense, picking up a node nearby, and a subtle smile crossed his face.

A minor node lay ahead, guarded by a handful of savage sea beasts prowling within, still hidden from all eyes.

Ning Qi skipped claiming this node, since his goals had moved past such prizes.

All he did was log its spot on the compass, building a full map of War Domain nodes to check back later and ensure every one got swept clean.

Once more, Ning Qi thrust toward the void, triggering the space-shifting move to head for the following node.

Having passed through seven or eight nodes already, Ning Qi spotted a massive one looming up front.

Fierce combat raged at that node, and one scan with his spiritual sense let Ning Qi grasp the sides locked in battle.

Exactly as he and Qi Keqing predicted, the longer the War Domain dragged on, the more Mountain and Sea Realm cultivators and Vast Realm cultivators banded together in pacts to push forward as one.

Those clashing forces up ahead weren't just from one Immortal Sect or a few anymore—they formed a full domain army!

Neither group rang a bell for Ning Qi, but he could tell from their setup that the side tilting left probably hailed from a Vast Realm domain army.

The troops in that Vast Realm force sported enchanted armor etched with fierce beast motifs.

To the right stood a Mountain and Sea Realm domain army, where loads of cultivators wore pale moonlit robes. From their divine techniques in action, Ning Qi figured they came from the Langya Domain in the Mountain and Sea Realm.

Details on the Langya Domain flooded Ning Qi's thoughts.

Unlike the Fuyao and Profound Truth Domains, Langya sat nearer the heart of the Mountain and Sea Realm, making it bigger and far more thriving.

Three Immortal Sects called it home: Star-fixing Immortal Sect, Red Sword Immortal Sect, and Divine Brush Immortal Sect.

With scant rivalries among these three Immortal Sects, they blended seamlessly into a mighty force, something truly impressive.

All divine techniques from the Star-fixing Immortal Sect tied back to the Dao of Chess.

So cultivators there swung chess-like shadows and streams of black-and-white energy, masters at weaving formations.

The Red Sword Immortal Sect echoed Ning Qi's own Infinite Sword Sect in some ways, but they zeroed in mostly on the Fire Dao and Sword Dao.

Divine Brush Immortal Sect folks gave off a refined, bookish vibe, wielding brushes as their go-to magical weapons.

They unleashed blows via crushing words, slashing script-forged word swords, or quick strokes that sketched illusions in the air, trapping foes in dreamlike cages on the spot.

Thus, it made perfect sense for these three Immortal Sects to unite and fold in all Langya Domain cultivators.

Their teamwork shone with precision; in Ning Qi's view, they outclassed Qi Keqing's Fuyao Realm army by a wide margin.

Still, when it came to topping the Profound Truth Realm army under his command, they fell short by a good bit.

Ning Qi shifted his eyes toward the Vast Realm cultivators.

Though their roots stayed a mystery, this army's synergy proved just as sharp, on par with the Langya Domain fighters.

Each assault brought roaring beast phantoms, qi-summoned beast forms, or rule-born hordes of a hundred beasts, bursting with savage terror and crushing pressure.

The joint strike from those cultivators hurtled toward the Langya Domain group, instantly swarming the void with ravenous beasts poised to swallow men whole!

As he observed the scene, Ning Qi recalled the five demon kings he'd tamed before.

Those tiger, leopard, wolf, lion, and eagle demon kings had battled with their followers against Vermilion Bird Immortal Sect cultivators once, their teamwork matching exactly what the Vast Realm cultivators displayed now.
