Seeking the Flying Sword Path - Chapter 726 - Meditation
Heavenly realm, Mt. Lightning Roar.
This was Sword Immortal Qin’s cave abode, and also a sacred land in the hearts of Misty Rain Sword Sect disciples.
Countless Misty Rain Sword Sect disciples yearned for a chance to come to Mt. Lightning Roar and receive Qin Yun’s personal guidance.
The Daoist-Fiend war had lasted for sixty thousand years, and the Misty Rain Sword Sect had been in existence for about the same amount of time. As the sword sect had penetrated countless Small Worlds, the number of disciples it had was astonishing. Over sixty thousand years… the number of Skyimmortals of the Misty Rain Sword Sect reached over a million! Those that reached the late-stages of the Skyimmortal realm numbered in the hundreds. Many of them had the strength of a half-step mighty figure.
Among them, there were about ten plus at the pinnacle of the Skyimmortal realm who had strength matching mighty figures.
Throughout the entire Three Realms, the Misty Rain Sword Sect could be considered to quite a strong line up!

“They are all talented, but are all short of that final step. To this date, Hanyu is the only one who has become a Golden Immortal of my Misty Rain Sword Sect.” After guiding his disciples, he had a casual chat with Yi Xiao while on a stroll.
Yi Xiao smiled and said, “Brother Yun, at present, be it the Small Worlds or Great Worlds, and even the Heavenly realm, your Misty Rain Sword Sect is a huge sect! When sword immortals are talked about, it’s mostly referring to our Misty Rain Sword Sect disciples. With so many low-level disciples, among the ranks of the mighty figures… our Misty Rain Sword Sect disciples will not account for a small number. These disciples just need time. After all, the sect has only been established for sixty thousand years!”
“Yea.” Qin Yun nodded.
Sword immortals were now the most mainstream cultivation lineage in the Three Realms. They were particularly famous for being adept at combat.
In terms of combat, sword immortals were number one across all the different lineages.
Of course, the Physical Establishing Sage lineage and the talisman amulet lineage still produced geniuses as well, but in terms of average standards, sword immortals were indeed the best at combat. Naturally, many cultivators chose to learn it. As for the Grand Supreme sword immortal lineage, it was difficult to even be one of them and the cultivation was difficult. Spreading the lineage was naturally difficult. Qin Yun’s Misty Rain Sword lineage had its Dharmic formulations—from Essence Soul to Skyimmortal—continuously perfected by him after he became a perfected Great Dao existence, making it even easier to cultivate them.
The difficulty of attaining the basics was much lower than it was in the Grand Supreme sword immortal lineage.
After all, the Grand Supreme sword immortal lineage was not cultivated by the Grand Supreme Dao Ancestor himself. He had come to it purely through inference. Even the Essence Soul was in the form of a sword and the cultivation Dharmic formulation was indeed difficult.
“My Green Touring Palace has nearly a hundred Golden Immortals,” said Qin Yun with a smile. “Perhaps in a million years, there will be a few more Golden Immortals from the Misty Rain lineage.”
“That day will definitely come.” Yi Xiao was very confident.
Qin Yun was the Misty Rain Sword Sect’s Ancestral Master and she was his wife, so naturally, she hoped for the sect to flourish.
“Of course, what I look forward to the most is the day a junior will be able to figure out a pinnacle Great Dao!” Qin Yun said wistfully. “A Skyimmortal sword immortal who grasps a pinnacle Great Dao, along with an extremely powerful Intrinsic Flying Sword, will have a chance to sweep through the countless Small Worlds and end the Daoist-Fiend war.”
“This will depend on chance. The fiends are also hoping to nurture a Skyfiend who can grasp a pinnacle Great Dao,” said Yi Xiao.
“Yea.” Qin Yun nodded.
At his level of existence, all he could do was influence the Daoist-Fiend war.
As the couple was chatting and strolling, Qin Yun’s expression suddenly changed.
“This is…”
With a thought, Qin Yun sensed the entire Three Realms and naturally felt the incredulous beam of light! It was a beam that illuminated the entirety of the Three Realms!
“Infinite Glow.”
“Amita?”
Qin Yun’s heart palpitated. “Amita has broken through to the Heavenly Dao realm?”
In the history of the Three Realms, Nüwa was the first to achieve the Heavenly Dao realm, followed by the Daoist Three Pure Ones, Buddhist Ancestor Gautama, and finally, Fiend Ancestor Black Lotus.
“The seventh Heavenly Dao realm existence in the history of the Three Realms.” Qin Yun was shaken up and envious. Although his combat strength was presently astounding, that was because he had an Intrinsic Connate Merit Cardinal treasure in hand! In terms of the realm of his Dao, he was only at Kong Xuan’s and Goumang’s level. He was still far from Ancestral Dragon, Hou Yi, and Amita’s former half-step Heavenly Dao realm.
Now, Amita had taken another step forward, reaching a whole new level!
“Brother Yun, Brother Yun, what happened?” Yi Xiao inquired for she noticed that Qin Yun was in a daze.
“Something huge has happened,” said Qin Yun.
“Huge?” Yi Xiao was puzzled. “Is the Daoist-Fiend war about to end?”
“No, it’s the Buddhists’ Amita. He has broken through to the Heavenly Dao realm,” said Qin Yun as he suddenly frowned. “The Three Realms…”
His realm was lower than the Fiend Ancestor’s, but he could still sense the state of the Three Realms. Soon, he discovered its changes.
Sou!
Qin Yun took a step forward and arrived at the edge of Mt. Lightning Roar’s mountaintop. He overlooked the vast, distant lands and took in the changes of the Heavenly realm.
The Three Realms were changing! Even the Heavenly realm at the core of the Three Realms was changing naturally.
The surroundings transformed as energy seemed to flow away like streaming dragons.
“Supreme Yang star.” Qin Yun suddenly looked up. The Supreme Yang star in the sky was originally blinding as it radiated its light and warmth. The power of the Supreme Yang reached every spot of the Three Realms, but now, under his observation, the Supreme Yang’s light was gradually converging. To a mortal, the Supreme Yang might appear to have dimmed. This was common for mortals; after all, the Supreme Yang could dim due to clouds or fog.
But Qin Yun knew that this was not a result of clouds or fog. Instead, the entire Three Realms was changing. It was very possible that this change would be permanent and fundamental.
“A change in the Myriad Objects can result in myriad changes.
“Ignoring the Supreme Yang star’s changes, even the Supreme Yin star…” Qin Yun glanced far away. In that direction was a massive star, the Supreme Yin star. It was extremely cold originally, but its might was now converged as it turned mild. Even Qin Yun, who had figured out the Dao of Supreme Yang and the Dao of Supreme Yin, could only barely sense the changes in the Supreme Yin star.
“Back when Pangu split the world into Yin and Yang, it is through the interaction of the two that the world came to have lightning, gales, and rain. Even humans were split from the interaction of Yin and Yang. In this change of the Three Realms, the source of Yin and Yang in the Three Realms, the Supreme Yang star and the Supreme Yin star first changed. The influence is just too huge.” Qin Yun had a premonition.
The change of the Three Realms was far more astounding than he had previously predicted.
Although astounded, Qin Yun knew that this was a rare chance for meditation.
The Dao of the Myriad Things in Heaven and Earth was usually difficult to comprehend. Now that the Three Realms was experiencing a change… many Great Dao turned much clearer, especially the changes in Yin and Yang. It allowed Qin Yun to carefully observe them. He had long figured out the Dao of Supreme Yang and the Dao of Supreme Yin… and was just short of the true Great Dao of Yin and Yang and their interactions.
“Brother Goumang, Brother Rushou, quickly come to the Three Realms.” Qin Yun transmitted via a karmic voice transmission. He knew that the two were perennially in the Chaos.
“Xiaoxiao, I’ll be spending some time here. Don’t let anyone disturb me.” Qin Yun said as he focused his body and mind onto all the changes in the Three Realms.
“Alright,” Yi Xiao replied. She knew that it was a critical moment for her husband’s cultivation.
******
“Whoosh.”
Across the cosmos, Goumang and Rushou tore through the void.
“Amita has broken through to the Heavenly Dao realm?” Rushou was the first to sense the light illuminating the Three Realms. “Brother Qin sent us a voice transmission to come to the Three Realms without any explanation. Oh? That’s not right, the Three Realms…”
Rushou also sensed it.
“The Three Realms is undergoing change.” Goumang sensed it as well.
Both of them were born grasping a perfected Great Dao, and because they had accumulated a great deal of insight over their long lifespans, they could clearly sense the changes in the Three Realms.
“The Three Realms’ Heavenly Dao is changing. We will be able to spy on the profound mysteries of the way the Myriad Objects operate.” Rushou felt disbelief. “Why would the Three Realms experience such huge changes?”
“Why bother wondering? First focus on meditating over this.” Goumang took a step and arrived on a barren planet and sat cross-legged.
Rushou similarly landed to his side and sat cross-legged.
Both of them began meditating over the changes of the Three Realms on this barren planet.
…
In a Great World.
“The entire Three Realms is slowly changing.”
A coiled and colossal dragon opened his eyes.
When his eyes opened, the Great World which was plunged into darkness brightened up. Everything turned clear and bright!
His eyes were like the Supreme Yang star.
“Now, even Amita has broken through to the Heavenly Dao realm. That junior, Black Lotus, also long reached the Heavenly Dao realm and is riding over me. I have accumulated so much insight, perhaps… through this change in the Three Realms, I might be able to figure out the Heavenly Dao of Myriad Objects.” He was born as one of the pinnacle existences in the world and, although he felt it was beneath him to vie for supremacy in the Three Realms, he was still a very proud person.
With there being several Heavenly Dao realm existences in the Three Realms, he chose to entrench himself in a Great World.
He did not wish to be under the command of the Heavenly Dao realm existences, nor did he wish to bow his head to them.
In fact, he was not the only one of these lurking ancient existences in the Three Realms, this Torch Dragon. He was just one of the strongest ones.
******
With the birth of a new Heavenly Dao realm existence, the strongest bunch of perfected Great Dao existences in the Three Realms began to meditate and take in the changes of the Three Realms. The Three Realms’ turning ethereal was a rare opportunity.
On the mountaintop of Mt. Lightning Roar, Qin Yun was also meditating over it.
