### Chapter 51: Creating a New Path!!! Shaking the World!!!

The holographic dwarf’s eyes widened in sheer disbelief as the pressure in the room escalated, the very air vibrating with an intensity that bordered on the catastrophic. The roiling qi in the environment swirled and surged, creating eddies of energy that crackled and sparked, the power of the tribulation building to a crescendo. This was not merely a Nascent Soul-level phenomenon; it was something far beyond, something that threatened to tear apart the very fabric of the space it inhabited.

"This child... what is he attempting?" the dwarf muttered, his voice a blend of awe and frustration. "The heavens themselves are watching, their gaze fixed upon this place as if the whole world is peering into this location." He glanced around, the translucent walls of the chamber reflecting the multi-colored flashes of energy that now enveloped Ning Feng.

As the dwarf looked on, the pressure intensified, the power of the tribulation surpassing even the Nascent Soul realm. "This isn't just any tribulation," the dwarf whispered, his ethereal form flickering. "It's something more, something that transcends the conventional understanding of cultivation realms. He's invoking a heavenly tribulation before even reaching the Nascent Soul realm, and in such a manner..."

The dwarf attempted to interact with the nine-colored crystal beside him, a treasure of unimaginable value in the outside world. But his feet phased through it, his frustration mounting as he realized his limitations. "I am the guardian here, and yet I am powerless to intervene. This child is summoning a force beyond comprehension, and I can only watch."

The qi storm in the room grew ever more chaotic, the swirling energies forming patterns and shapes that defied logic. Lightning crackled, arcs of pure energy dancing across the chamber, the very ground beneath Ning Feng trembling as if the earth itself was reacting to the power being summoned.

...

On every floor of the dungeon, a strange phenomenon began to unfold. The air grew thick with an oppressive energy, the walls vibrating with an unseen force. Cultivators across the dungeon paused in their tracks, their senses overwhelmed by the sudden surge of power emanating from the fourth floor.

Ning Lian and Ning Jian, navigating the labyrinthine pathways of the third floor, exchanged bewildered glances. "What in the world is going on?" Ning Lian exclaimed, her voice tinged with concern. "This pressure... it feels like the dungeon itself is reacting to something."

Ning Jian nodded, his brow furrowed in concentration. "It's coming from the fourth floor," he said, his voice steady despite the rising tension. "Whatever is happening there, it's causing a disturbance that we can feel even here. We need to stay alert."

Elsewhere in the dungeon, random cultivators found themselves similarly affected. A group of explorers on the second floor paused mid-battle, their adversaries forgotten as they turned their attention to the strange energy permeating the air. "What is this?" one of them whispered, his eyes wide with fear and curiosity. "I've never felt anything like it."

On the first floor, a solitary figure meditating in a secluded alcove opened his eyes, his serene expression replaced with one of intense focus. "A heavenly tribulation... but on such a scale?" he murmured, his voice filled with awe. "Who could be capable of invoking such power?"

The dungeon had become a cauldron of speculation and fear, the cultivators within its depths grappling with the implications of the unprecedented events unfolding around them. As the strange phenomena continued to escalate, one thing became clear: something extraordinary was happening on the fourth floor, something that would shake the very foundations of their understanding of cultivation.

............

The air grew denser, as if the entire room was compressing under an unseen weight. The swirling qi storm around me intensified, lightning crackling within its depths, casting eerie, flickering shadows across the walls. Suddenly, three distinct Dao rings materialized behind my back, forming concentric circles. The outermost ring shimmered with a blue fire, the next with transparent water, and the innermost with green wind.

The holographic dwarf's eyes widened in shock. "Three low-level concepts... but in such a manner?" he muttered, his voice barely audible over the roar of the energy storm. "This isn't merely extraordinary; it's impossible!"

He took a closer look at the formations within the abode, his expression one of growing incredulity. "It's not that grasping three low-level concepts is unheard of," he said, his tone rising with each word, "but this child... He's too young! How could someone so young master such diverse elements? And even more astonishingly, the formations indicate that he possesses neither a special physique nor a spirit physique."

As he scrutinized the formations further, his shock deepened. "Not only does he have three concepts, but he's also in the mid-level Qi Manifestation stage. This can't be possible! There is only one explanation for such a phenomenon: He must have comprehended higher realms faster and earlier than he should have."

The holographic figure's gaze turned towards me, his eyes filled with a mixture of awe and fear. "What kind of monster is this child?" he wondered aloud. "What kind of comprehension ability allows for such rapid advancement and mastery of concepts?"

Before the dwarf could ponder further, the atmosphere in the room shifted once more. The swirling qi around me began to coalesce, forming intricate patterns that linked together like a vast, complex weave. Runes, glowing with an ethereal light, emerged from the air itself, swirling around me in a mesmerizing dance.

The dwarf's jaw dropped as he witnessed the spectacle. "Runes? formations?... at this level of complexity? And he's weaving them together so effortlessly?" He could hardly believe what he was seeing. "This is beyond prodigious. It's as if he's creating a new path in cultivation, something entirely unprecedented."

The runes continued to swirl, forming a dazzling array of patterns that pulsed with raw, untamed energy. Each rune seemed to resonate with the elements of fire, water, and wind, amplifying their power and intertwining them into a unified whole. The energy emanating from the formations grew more intense, the very air vibrating with its potency.

Another change began to take place. Runes linked together, forming a complex weave that started swirling around me. The runes, glowing with an ethereal light, danced and interlocked, creating a pattern that seemed almost alive.

The dwarf watched in silent amazement as the runes began to form a new pattern, one that resonated with a frequency he had never encountered before. "He's doing it," he realized, his voice filled with a mixture of awe and disbelief. "He's actually doing it."

The runes continued to weave together, forming a complex lattice that shimmered with an otherworldly light. The energy within the room grew almost unbearable, the pressure building to a point where it felt like the very walls would collapse under the strain.

Yet, amidst the chaos, I remained calm. My mind was clear, my focus unwavering. I could feel the space element drawing closer, its presence becoming more tangible with each passing moment. The runes were the key, the means to bridge the gap between the physical and the ethereal.

"This is it," I thought, my heart pounding with anticipation. "I'm on the verge of a breakthrough."

The holographic dwarf could hardly contain his excitement. "This child is not just a genius; he's a revolutionary. If he succeeds, he'll bring a huge change to the 81 realms themselves."

I felt the power building within me, the runes forming a lattice that pulsed with energy. My mind raced, recalling the theories and knowledge I had amassed.

Just as the runic patterns reached their peak, the energy within the room reached a critical point. The pressure was overwhelming, the air crackling with raw power. I could feel it, so close, almost within my grasp.

And then, with a sudden surge, the runes linked together, forming a final, intricate pattern that resonated with a deep, powerful hum.

The room exploded with light, the energy within the runes converging into a single point. The power was immense.

"My runic formations... they use fire, water, and wind concepts to create effects. But what if I could use normal qi as a canvas, creating a system of runic formations that could generate any kind of effect? They would be weaker compared to those created by concepts, but the potential..."

The thought filled me with excitement. I was standing on the brink of a new discovery, a new power.

"I will not stop until I master this," I declared, my voice steady and determined. The qi storm around me intensified, the runes swirling faster and faster, their light growing brighter.

................................

The dwarf watched in awe as the runic formation within Ning Feng continued to evolve and said with a smile. "This child... no, this young man... he's creating a new path, a new way of understanding the universe. His comprehension ability is beyond anything I've ever seen. It's almost like watching master again."

His eyes were filled with reminiscence.

.................................

The room trembled, the energy reaching a climax. The runes glowed with an intensity that threatened to blind me, the power surging through my body like a tidal wave. The pressure was immense, but I stood firm, my resolve unshaken.

"Come on," I whispered to myself, "just a little more..."

And then, everything went silent.

The storm of qi, the swirling runes, the overwhelming pressure—all of it stopped in an instant. The room was filled with an eerie calm, the only sound my own heartbeat echoing in my ears.
