"???"
Golden Egg's dragon eyes widened, and its gaze instinctively fell on Chen Beiwu.
Through the resonance of the co-existing contract, it can roughly understand the effects of Schiller's awakening of the Five Returns to Origin.
However, there was one thing that puzzled Jin Dan: Could the Five Elements Yuan mentioned by Xuan Tong be the Creation Yuan that only a True Venerable of the Nascent Soul stage could control?
If that's the case, wouldn't Schiller be able to master the terrifying magical power that only a True Immortal of the Nascent Soul stage can possess ahead of time, and instantly gain the overwhelming power to crush demon kings of the four realms?
Tie Dan and Zhi Ling exchanged a glance, both feeling that Jin Dan's idea was unlikely.
While the Five Qi Vine clan possesses formidable bloodlines and is a highly representative Heavenly Dipper Mystic Beast of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect, it is not a Creation Primordial Beast. How could it possibly accomplish such an outrageous feat?
Even Aji, who was usually calm, looked at Schiller with curiosity.
There is an insurmountable chasm between the Demon Kings of the Fourth Realm and the Demon Lords of the Fifth Realm.
Even if it possesses the potential of a demon lord, it cannot condense a trace of creation energy in advance at the demon king stage. At most, it can barely use the True Form Profound Power that can only be activated by a fifth-level demon lord by relying on its bloodline.
You're overthinking it.
Chen Beiwu chuckled and explained using the concept of the Co-existing Contract.
The Five Elements Primordial Qi and the Creation Primordial Qi may seem similar, but they are actually two completely different kinds of primordial energy.
The former is the innate essence that Schellet activated Xuantong, using the five elements to refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and consuming many rare and precious materials to transform it. At the same time, it is also the key that can help the Nascent Soul True Lord return the five qi to the five organs and achieve the five qi returning to the origin, hence the name primordial qi.
The latter is not the innate essence of the Five Elements, but the Creation Essence that can be conceived by the True Venerable of Transformation after the Three Flowers Gather at the Top and the Five Qi Converge at the Origin, based on his own Law of Heaven and Earth. It contains incredible power of creation and can change the rules of a region, transforming them into the rules of the Law.
Therefore, the Creation Origin is also respectfully referred to as the Dharma Image Origin by the cultivators of the Immortal Alliance.
According to Chen Beiwu's reading of the Jade Purity Classics, even if a mere trace of the Dharma Image Yuan leaked out by a Nascent Soul True Venerable, it could crush the Nascent Soul True Monarch's ultimate sublimation and eruption with overwhelming force, deciding the life or death of the Nascent Soul True Monarch with a single word, far surpassing the "key forged by Xue Le with Xuan Tong".
Of course, in terms of destructive and creative power, the Five Elements Qi is inferior to the Dharma Image Qi. However, in terms of helping Nascent Soul True Monarchs break through realms, advance, and attain enlightenment and deity, the Five Elements Qi is undoubtedly superior to the Dharma Image Qi.
Otherwise, the Five Qi Vine and the Chaoyuan Vine would not have become one of the symbols of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect and would not have enjoyed such a prestigious reputation on the Immortal Alliance's official website.
"That's it."
Schiller nodded, agreeing with Chen Beiwu's statement, fearing that his friends might think it was exceptionally powerful and drag it into a magical duel.
"Hoo." (I see.)
Jin Dan felt relieved, and the pressure was greatly reduced.
However, as Chen Beiwu continued to probe the depths of the Xuele lineage with his divine sense, he saw another newly awakened profound power, and Jin Dan's eyes couldn't help but change slightly.
【Mysterious Connection】：Burial of the Five Elements 【Attributes】：All Five Elements are present, with Wood as the primary element 【Rank】：Fifth-order Creation Yuan Technique 【Description】：Draws the five elements into the body to manifest the Xuanhuang Domain. This domain can attract, strip away, and bury the mysteries of the five elements, rendering the mysteries of the five elements ineffective and transforming them into pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
The wonder of this method lies not in its transformation, but in its burial. It can enhance the power of the Xuanhuang Domain by mastering the profound techniques of surgery, thus burying the life of the enemy.
"roar!"
Upon realizing the effects of this profound technique, the golden egg's pupils contracted, and its three mouths opened slightly, feeling that its title as the team's strongest defender was about to crumble.
The reason is simple: its Three-Phase Indestructible Mystic Power can only exempt most of the mystic powers of the metal, wood, and water elements. When it encounters an opponent whose cultivation level is far superior to its own, its defense may be broken and its physical body may be injured.
Schiller, on the other hand, awakened a defensive profound power upon his breakthrough that could destroy the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.
It should be understood that whether it is the righteous method of cultivating immortality by borrowing beasts from the Immortal Alliance or the ancient cultivation methods of the Southern Wilderness, their profound and mysterious techniques are mostly subject to the Five Elements.
This also means that from today onwards, Schiller possesses a more powerful defensive ability than it.
"Hey!" (That's an exaggeration!)
Sensing Jin Dan's thoughts, Schiller waved his hands repeatedly, humbly stating that it was not that serious.
While its Five Qi Burials is powerful, it is only strong in its mechanism; its defensive stats are somewhat lacking and cannot compare to the Golden Egg's Three Phases Unbreakable.
That's a defensive Xuan Tong with the characteristic of three lives symbiosis, and maximum tolerance for mistakes.
Golden Egg Dragon narrowed its eyes, not being fooled by Xue Le. It decided to use this time to activate the Furnace's Profound Magic Technique to create a defensive profound magic technique tailored to itself, so as to stack the Three Phases of Indestructibility and regain the title of the team's strongest defender.
Schiller blinked, revealing an innocent look, while the Heavenly Armor Corpse King beside him inadvertently took a step back, increasing the distance between himself and the golden egg.
Seeing the expressions on the two little ones' faces, Chen Beiwu shook his head and probed the two lineages of Xue Leyuan and Shu with his divine sense.
As expected, even if Schiller awakens the Five Returns to Origin that Chaoyuan Teng can master ahead of time, his bloodline grade will only be at the level of a fifth-order Yuan Beast, and he will not be able to compete with the Creation Yuan Beast.
"How long does it take to condense a wisp of the Five Elements?" Chen Beiwu asked, getting down to business.
"Hey." (Three years should be enough to condense a wisp of it.)
Schiller stretched out her small hand, and five elements of light flashed and converged at her fingertips, radiating a strong vitality.
Upon hearing this, Chen Beiwu understood and was not surprised.
According to the sect's records, for the same level of four-realm ultimate demon king, it takes three months for Chaoyuan Vine to condense a wisp of the Five Elements Yuan, while for a demon lord-level Chaoyuan Vine it takes only one day.
Schiller is still a Five Qi Vine, and it will take three years to condense a wisp of Five Elements Yuan Qi. It seems to be extremely inefficient, but in fact it has far exceeded Chen Beiwu's expectations.
A hundred threads merge into one.
At this rate, it would take Schiller approximately three hundred years to condense a complete Five Elements Primordial Qi.
This time may seem long, but within the Immortal Alliance, the value of a complete Five Elements Essence is no less than that of a Five Elements Venerable Pill.
Many Nascent Soul Peak True Monarchs serve as Star Conquerors, risking their lives and spending thousands of years to accumulate enough merit to exchange for the Five Elements Venerable Pill, demonstrating how rare the Five Elements Essence is.
Furthermore, the condensation of the Five Elements Yuanhui would delay the cultivation of the Chaoyuan Vine, causing cultivators within the Yuqing Immortal Sect who were qualified to contract with the Chaoyuan Vine to no longer consider selling it. As a result, the value of the Five Elements Yuanhui has been increasing over the years, and only those with sufficiently high status have the opportunity to exchange for one.
"Take your time, there's no rush. During this time, I will collect rare and precious materials with the five elements to help you condense the five elements essence."
Chen Beiwu reminded Xue Le, fearing that the little guy was too focused on condensing his Yuan energy.
"Hey."
Schiller patted his chest, indicating that with the many profound and powerful medicines in the Five Elements Forest, although the consumption of condensing the Five Elements Essence was considerable, he could still condense it for two hours every day.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Chen Beiwu reached out and touched the Five Elements Crown on Xue Le's head.
With Schiller's refinement of the Five Elements, his chances of attaining the Dao and becoming a True Venerable God in the future will increase by another 10% or 20%.
As for Tie Dan, it gently nibbled on Chen Beiwu's sleeve, indicating that it wanted to go to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect to learn alchemy.
Even Schiller is working hard, and it doesn't want to fall behind.
Chen Beiwu nodded. With Jin Dan and Xue Le having both completed their breakthroughs, he could now return to the Xuan Yan Realm to check on the progress of Wan Du and Cang Mo Sect, and whether they had already held their grand ceremonies to formally recognize Jing Yue as their superior sect.
In the Southern Wilderness, in the Xuan Yan Realm, there is an unnamed cave.
As soon as Chen Beiwu appeared, the fortune within the chaotic world began to surge dramatically.
The vast and boundless fortune, like ink dissolving into clear water, made the Purple Canopy, which occupied the center of the chaotic world, even more profound and incomparably noble.
Gradually, as time passed, under Chen Beiwu's divine sense, the Purple Qi Canopy position became completely connected with the countless energies of the Ten Thousand Poisons and Cangmo sects, radiating points of brilliance, as if lighting up the entire starry sky.
In the next instant, the weather changed dramatically. A pillar of purple-gold light shot into the sky, spreading purple-gold radiance throughout the entire chaotic world. Then it all receded, revealing a purple-gold canopy that looked even more ancient and heavy, as if it were bearing the mandate of heaven.
Near the canopy, wisps of purple auspicious clouds appeared, only to vanish without a trace in the blink of an eye.
With the blessing of the Purple Gold Canopy, Chen Beiwu's mind became clear, and he felt his comprehension had increased several points.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye; the Immortal Alliance, Huncheng Peak.
"Hey!"
Schiller opened his eyes, ran up to Chen Beiwu, and raised his hands high.
On the palm of his hand, a faint wisp of primordial energy, as subtle as the first rays of dawn, was so intense that even a Nascent Soul True Monarch's divine sense could hardly detect it.
Chen Beiwu stretched out his finger and gently touched it, wanting to test the power of this wisp of Five Elements Yuan.
Unexpectedly, with a flick of his finger, the Five Elements Yuan that Schiller had spent three years nurturing vanished without a trace.
"Huh?" (How does it feel?)
Schiller used his divine sense to probe continuously, but he couldn't detect any changes in Chen Beiwu.
On the contrary, Chen Beiwu had a keen sense and noticed that his physical strength had increased by two points.
Moreover, under the nourishment of a wisp of the Five Elements Qi, the Five Virtues Body he forged with the Tai Xuan Shou Yi also showed signs of change, with a faint tendency to transform into the Innate Five Virtues Dao Body.
However, that wisp of Five Elements Yuan was too insignificant. If Chen Beiwu had not reached the pinnacle of his cultivation and possessed a divine sense far surpassing that of a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator, he probably wouldn't have noticed this slight change.
Wait, since the Five Elements can help the Five Virtues Body transform, can it also be used to forge the Primordial Myriad Calamities Body?
Chen Beiwu's heart stirred, seeing the possibility of cultivating the Primordial Immortal Technique to its ultimate perfection.
Although he was distracted by creating new techniques and consolidating the forces of the Ten Thousand Poisons and Cangmo sects in recent years, he never gave up cultivating the Primordial Fundamental Immortal Technique.
However, his progress in cultivating immortal techniques was slow, and he was unable to grasp the true meaning of the techniques, comprehend the principle that "the beginning is not the beginning, and the myriad tribulations are not the end," transform the true meaning of the beginning into his own body, take himself as the Dao, and forge the Primordial Myriad Tribulations Body.
"It feels great. This Five Elements Primordial Qi is very useful to me," Chen Beiwu praised generously.
Upon hearing this, Schiller's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and he smiled very happily.
"Roar?" (What did the Desolate Gu Sect say?)
Golden Egg interjected.
Back then, Beiwu only gave the Huanggu Sect three years. Now that the three years have long passed, it's time for it to take action and punish the Huanggu Sect for breaking its promise.
"No rush," Chen Beiwu shook his head.
Merging forces requires manpower, time, and energy.
For the Nascent Soul forces in the Southern Wilderness, the Profound Transformation Realm is located in a remote corner, with no Nascent Soul resources within its borders, and is further isolated by natural barriers such as the Three Ruins. To expend effort to conquer it would be a waste of time and energy, equivalent to poverty alleviation, and could not guarantee the complete loyalty of the half-step Nascent Soul cultivators who are vassals of the Profound Transformation Realm to the sect.
It is even possible that fierce internal strife could erupt over the competition for the sect's Nascent Soul stage resources.
That is why Chen Beiwu did not send many Mirror Moon cultivators to the Profound Exploration Realm, but only asked for a title.
Then, several disciples from the Beast Taming lineage were assigned to oversee the Ten Thousand Poisons and Azure Desert sects, to establish the legitimate name of the Mirror Moon Sect, rather than to completely rule the Profound Transformation Realm.
"I have already entrusted the task of subduing the Desolate Gu to the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and the Azure Desert Sect. The Desolate Gu True Monarch is a smart man, so he probably won't need your help," Chen Beiwu said.
Compared to the matter of the Southern Wilderness Profound Realm, he is now more concerned about the Heavenly Ruins that the Immortal Alliance is about to open.
Compared to the opportunities in the Heavenly Ruins, the mere Desolate Gu Sect is utterly insignificant.
"Buzz!"
Just then, a jade slip appeared outside the cave, its light flashing.
Chen Beiwu scanned the area with his divine sense, his eyes filled with undisguised joy.
After waiting for more than three years, the opening day of Tianxu has finally been confirmed.
However, one piece of news surprised Chen Beiwu: the competition for the Tianxu spot was fierce, and the Tianyuan Yu family had to spend extra money to add a spot for Yu Zhaohua.
"Fortunately, I didn't hold back back then, and led the sect's cultivators to victory in the Cave Heaven Grand Competition," Chen Beiwu thought to himself.
Even Yu Zhaohua, who comes from the Dao Venerable Immortal Clan and possesses an innate Dao Body, could not obtain a spot in the Heavenly Ruins. Her family behind her had to contribute to increase the number of spots rather than directly securing one. This shows that the competition was fierce, with many top forces vying for it.
After putting away the jade slip, Chen Beiwu immediately activated his escape light and headed to the Jade Purity Palace.
On the other side, three figures were already waiting in front of the Jade Purity Hall.
These three are all renowned figures in the Jade Purity Immortal Sect: Mountain Moving True Lord Yue Shan, Rainbow Cloud True Lord Su Miao, and Fire Shining True Lord Yu Zhaohua.
The three appeared calm, but their inner tension was palpable.
While waiting for the sect leader to summon him, Protector Qinghe would occasionally glance at him with a strange, oppressive look in his eyes.
Although this generation of Nascent Soul True Monarchs has decent talent and aptitude, they cannot be considered to have the potential to refine emptiness, let alone compare with Chen Beiwu. Qinghe suppressed the thought of finding a contracted cultivator in his heart.
Of the three, only Yu Zhaohua, who possessed an innate Dao body, could earn his respect, but he was still too inexperienced.
In comparison, it's no wonder that Yu Yue, feeling restless, decided to try forming a bond of friendship with Chen Beiwu.
Just then, a beam of light descended, revealing Chen Beiwu's figure.
Before Yu Zhaohua could even say hello, a streak of light landed in Chen Beiwu's arms with lightning speed.
"Long time no see, have you made up your mind?"
Yu Yue tilted her head and rested it against Chen Beiwu's chest, her light barely penetrating his chest.
Contrary to her expectations, the jade horn hanging around Chen Beiwu's neck remained unchanged, and its inner meaning was not diminished in the slightest.
"Strange, could it be that Chen Beiwu's connection with the Dao of Life and Death Reincarnation is insufficient?"
A hint of doubt arose in Yu Yue's heart, but she quickly suppressed it.
No, that's not scientific!
For her to inexplicably develop feelings for him, Chen Beiwu must be an unparalleled genius on the path of life and death.
Thinking about it from another perspective, perhaps it's because Chen Beiwu is so perfectly aligned with the Great Dao of Life and Death Reincarnation that he can coexist with the true meaning of reincarnation, which is why the true meaning within the reincarnation horn hasn't leaked out!
What are you dreaming about!
Qinghe glanced at Yuyue with annoyance and said through telepathy.
He had been with Yu Yue for many years, so how could he not know what the latter was thinking?
However, it is impossible for a peerless genius to coexist with the Great Dao of Life and Death Reincarnation in this world, unless Chen Beiwu is a supreme Primordial Dao Artifact like the Book of Life and Death Reincarnation, and he must be the reincarnation of the artifact spirit!
