Chapter 649: Chapter 649: The Nine-Fold Scene_1
“What is this Taoist Rhyme?”

At this moment, the many Flower Fairies heard yet another entirely new Taoist Rhyme.

This Taoist Rhyme hadn’t even formed into a sequence; it seemed as though a master was idly strumming a string on a zither.

Despite its apparent casualness, the Taoist Rhyme flowed continuously, reaching the ears and stirring the spirits of those who heard it.

“Could this be a self-created Taoist Rhyme?”

Beneath the Endless Tree, Ziluo Immortal Master’s eyes lit up.

She had a conjecture in her mind.

Her beautiful eyes shone with a continuous stream of marvelous light.

Self-created Taoist Rhyme!

Though she had achieved Great Luo, she could not create a complete, even a single, Taoist Rhyme on her own.

Yet Qin Changqing, who had not achieved Great Luo, had self-created a Taoist Rhyme.

And as the Taoist Rhyme sounded, it quickly caused a Great Tao Resonance.

In the heavens above, endless wondrous lights began to emerge.

“A Manifestation of the Great Tao!”

Yet another Manifestation of the Great Tao, but this time, it belonged to Qin Changqing.

Beneath the Endless Tree, the Flowers Celestial Master stood with her arms crossed behind her back; in the long years of her life, she had witnessed many Golden Immortals in their ascension, many times over.

Among these Golden Immortals attempting to ascend, some succeeded, others failed, and some had no choice but to seek Taiyi.

As far as she could see, Qin Changqing’s ascension was faster, more decisive, and seemingly more effortless compared to those she had witnessed before.

It gave the Flowers Celestial Master the sense that when the time came, one would simply achieve ascension, just like that.

Previously, when Qin Changqing mentioned his own impending ascension, he even gave the Flowers Celestial Master an impression of nonchalance.

It appeared that to Qin Changqing, this was not such a big deal at all.

But to ascend to Great Luo was not so simple!

“Who could he be?”

The Flowers Celestial Master fixed her gaze on Qin Changqing, a trace of doubt in her eyes.

Bai Huatian, as one of the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Realm, although it did not recruit other Immortals, the Flowers Celestial Master had still paid close attention to Qin Changqing.

Nine Tribulation Scattered Immortals were rare enough, and the commotion caused by Qin Changqing’s ascension was already considerable, wasn’t it?

In the few hundred years that Qin Changqing had been in Bai Huatian, the Flowers Celestial Master’s knowledge of him had grown as they researched Taoist Rhyme together.

The Flowers Celestial Master was also aware that in recent years, the number of Immortals ascending from Blue Realm had reached nearly two thousand.

Over these millennia, there had been many rumors about Qin Changqing.

Some immortals said that Qin Changqing was most likely the reincarnation of a formidable ancient being, which explained his extraordinary abilities.

This seemed to be the most credible explanation.

Yet, having spent centuries with him, the Flowers Celestial Master felt that Qin Changqing was not the reincarnation of an ancient figure.

In such close company, it would be possible to notice many differences if he were a reincarnated ancient figure.

If it was an ordinary Immortal, naturally, they would not sense it.

At the level of the Flowers Celestial Master, one’s intuition was usually quite accurate.

But if he was not the reincarnation of an ancient figure, then who was Qin Changqing, and who else could be as extraordinary as him?

“Quite a few have taken notice of him, his ascension to Great Luo now seems to be a good thing,” thought the Flowers Celestial Master, suppressing her curiosity.

“Oh, Immortal Leader, look, there’s another layer!”

At that moment, Ziluo Immortal Master made a new discovery.

When the Flowers Celestial Master looked up, she saw that high in the sky, the Manifestation of the Great Tao was changing once again.

It was as if another layer had emerged.

“The second layer of Manifestation!”

Ziluo Immortal Master exclaimed.

Usually, when a Great Luo ascends to Golden Immortal, there is primarily a single layer of Manifestation.

A second layer of Manifestation indicated a very formidable Golden Immortal ascending to Great Luo.

Previously, Zihe had only one layer of Manifestation.

Now, a second layer had appeared for Qin Changqing.

However, the Flowers Celestial Master was not overly surprised.

“There’s more!”

Ziluo Immortal Master soon made another discovery.

The third layer of Manifestation had come into existence.

“Actually, three layers!”

Ziluo Immortal Master was now slightly astonished.

The second layer was already quite rare, and the third layer, even more so.

Generally speaking, the more manifestations of the Great Tao that occur during the proof of Great Luo, the stronger one will be after becoming Great Luo.

Even among the Great Luo, some are strong and some are weak.

The fruits of the Tao vary as well.

If one could simply look at the size of a person’s Tao fruit, it might be as small as a pigeon egg.

But for others, their Tao fruit could be as big as a duck egg, or even a goose egg.

That is the difference.

This, to some extent, can reveal the potential of someone who has become Great Luo.

Taking Zihe as an example, if one does not consider Qin Changqing’s factor, she might well remain at the level of Great Luo for her entire life, unable to advance any further.

Many who achieve Great Luo will face the same situation.

And this is not determined by the transformation of one’s Spiritual Root upon becoming Immortal.

After becoming Immortal, the Immortal Root is no longer the decisive factor.

Can anyone reach the state of Golden Immortal if their Immortal Root is poor?

However, other factors, such as insight, luck, and opportunity, are becoming increasingly important.

Especially insight; it is the most important of all.

The right time and place are equally crucial.

In short, achieving Great Luo is no easy task.

And rising above Great Luo is even harder.

Now, as everyone watched Qin Changqing trigger a threefold manifestation, Ziluo Immortal Master’s evaluation of him went up another level.

“Threefold manifestation, actually threefold manifestation, I wonder which sister it might be.”

“It seems that all of the Golden Immortals from the Heaven of a Hundred Flowers are here, except those who are traveling far, right?”

“Could it be those guys?”

A group of Flower Fairies at the golden immortal layer gathered together. Witnessing the threefold manifestation, they looked at each other, each eager to know who was undergoing the proof of the Tao.

But after checking, all the Golden Immortals they knew, except for those who had gone on journeys to the Outer Heaven Realm, seemed to be here.

“It can’t be those guys. It must be a sister who has returned from her travels, right?”

One Golden Immortal said.

“Threefold manifestation!”

“The Heaven of a Hundred Flowers truly has produced a formidable figure!”

“Within a thousand years, two have proven their Tao. If this person is also from the Heaven of a Hundred Flowers, then the Heaven of a Hundred Flowers is indeed formidable.”

At this moment, outside the Heaven of a Hundred Flowers, many other Immortals had already arrived.

“Look!”

Someone exclaimed.

Others looked and saw that the Manifestation of the Great Tao was not yet over; it further materialized in just a short span of time.

“Fourfold!”

“Fivefold now!”

“My heavens, sixfold!”

“Goodness me, ninefold!”

Amidst the astonished gazes of all the Immortals, the Manifestation of the Great Tao surged forth at once, brought about by Qin Changqing, resulting in a ninefold manifestation!

“What kind of Tao is he proving!”

An Immortal exclaimed.

Nine is the ultimate number.

Ninefold manifestation is indeed the highest one.

Triggering a ninefold manifestation clearly makes the proof of Tao easier.

If the heart of this Golden Immortal is not grand enough, then it would indeed be much easier.

But ease is not the true meaning of a ninefold manifestation.

A ninefold manifestation indicates that this Golden Immortal’s heart is not ordinary; he wishes to prove a stronger Tao path and concurrently seeks to obtain a grander Tao fruit.

This way, not only does he become stronger upon achieving Great Luo,

but he also has greater hope of reaching beyond Great Luo.

But, ordinary Golden Immortals should not even dream of triggering a ninefold manifestation.

For Golden Immortals who are plants that have become Immortal… it is even more difficult.

“To actually trigger a ninefold manifestation, it definitely can’t be one of our sisters!”

“No idea who it is!”

“It’s definitely not those guys. Those guys are stiff as wood; none of them are this incredible.”

The gathering of Golden Immortal level Flower Fairies, each with an expression of shock, discussed among themselves.

One Golden Immortal looked towards the male Immortals who had come from the Monster Immortal Realm and said,

She certainly did not hope that the one proving Great Luo was among these male Immortals.

Should a talent so defiant of the heavens emerge among these male Immortals who had migrated from the Monster Immortal Realm, they would likely demand a larger territory within the Heaven of a Hundred Flowers.
