Volume 1 Chapter 112: The Five Elements Unite
"Ah? Seeing the other party's actions, although he had guessed their intentions vaguely after listening to those explanations, he didn't expect Li Songhui to be so direct. He hastily stood up and said, 'Li Dao friend, don't be too polite, this matter... I'm truly powerless.'"
This is the truth, what the other party values is that they think he can break through the spiritual movement period at any time and enter a higher level, but in fact, he is now only in the foundation building period, even if he breaks through, it's just barely entering the spiritual movement period, let alone that he doesn't even know how to break through now. "Hehe, never mind."
Since Daoist friend is unwilling, Hong Hui also dare not force it. Let's do this: please wait with an open mind for my sincerity, and making a decision later won't be too late." Unexpectedly, as he made excuses, Li Danghui suddenly stood up straight, smiled freely, and just like that, the matter passed.
He was truly unexpected, after all, the other party had made it very clear earlier that a cultivator who could transcend the spiritual period would have an immeasurable significance to the current third-rate cultivation world. Would he give up so easily? In fact, he didn't think that Li Tonghui came this time with the expectation that he would directly agree.
Because of what he just said, there was not a bit of concealment, and Kuang was also afraid to conceal it. After all, these were just common knowledge in the Xiu Zhen realm, almost everyone knew about them. If they concealed it now, when Xu Yu heard the truth from other cultivators later on, he would only harbor resentment towards Nan Ming Island, and he wouldn't be so foolish.
But once everything is clear, as long as Xu Yu doesn't make a choice for a day or two, almost the entire Northern Land and overseas Xiu Zhen circles will rush to grab that one sect quota. One is the power of an island, while the other is the power of many sects. If the other party isn't stupid, they won't directly agree with Nan Ming Island.
So he came this time, just wanting to be the first to show his good intentions to Xu Yu, as long as the other party had an image of Nanming Island in their heart, and when they really broke through one day, they would consider Nanming Island first, and he would be satisfied.
To say nothing of anything else, he has already surpassed other Xiu Zhen sects by a huge margin. At the very least, others can't even...
"Northern Evil Spirit", but nobody knows who it is. This is also a good start.
After standing up straight with a smile, Li Songhui smiled again and said, "The matter of the Northern Spirit Prefecture and the Southern Cavern Heaven, Hong Hui has already told you everything. However, these days, I also want to linger in this mundane world for a while. If you have any questions about your cultivation or matters related to the Cultivation Realm that you don't understand, feel free to ask, and I will answer without reservation."
"En." Xǔ Yú immediately smiled too, and nodded lightly. If there was a Li Dāng Huì, a foundation-building cultivator, with the island's Great Elder guiding him on the side, it would be a good thing for him as well.
Although he also knew that the other party would do so, it was only because he thought he could break through the spiritual dynamic period at any time, and deliberately showed kindness. In fact, he was temporarily powerless to break through as the other party thought, but he didn't have any guilt either. After all, what he wanted to understand wasn't a secret.
For the rest of the time, the two were almost one asking and one answering. As the topic gradually deepened, Xu Yu's face also became more and more cheerful. For him, this was also a good start.
As time imperceptibly slipped away, until the eastern horizon faintly brightened again, the two of them suddenly woke up with a start. It turned out that they had already talked deeply for one night, and by this time, Xu Yu felt that he had gained a lot. Even though he spent the whole night explaining some common sense things, it was also considered to be an eye-opener.
Among them, the most beneficial to him is the bottleneck problem he is currently facing. Li Tonghui, although not a martial artist himself, has a certain level of insight. According to him, for those who practice martial arts, breaking through the bottleneck does not have a 100% effective method, but there is a technique that can give martial artists a high probability of breakthrough.
This technique, Li Honghui only said as an interesting story, that is, any bottleneck period warrior, as long as they can cultivate the true essence of the five pre-heavenly martial arts of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and then achieve the unity of the five elements, there is a great hope to break through.
This was naturally an interesting piece of news to Li Songhui, as grasping the essence of any innate martial technique, even a lowly Earth-grade one, required a person's long-term comprehension.
Ordinary martial artists, throughout their lives, generally master at most two or three different five-elemental techniques. To master all five elements and ultimately unify them is a difficulty that's hard to imagine.
But this made Nian Yu's heart and soul greatly stirred.
Because he grasped the essence of innate martial skills, it wasn't a difficult task for him.
Perhaps the only thing he takes seriously is how to make the five elements harmonize.
He was still in a state of confusion, wondering how he could continue to break through with his current state, but unexpectedly, he got a clue right here from Li Songhui.
After all, as long as he breaks through, it will be a period of spiritual movement, and the period of spiritual movement can extend his life by more than 50 years!
Before, he may not have had a clear pursuit, just thinking about how to prove himself capable to that person. But since the Ning City incident, he found his life trajectory had already slid towards an unknown direction. In this process, he also unknowingly discovered that he actually yearned for that magical world. Or rather, when he truly realized that this world existed with legendary immortals, he was filled with great enthusiasm for it. Who wouldn't be tempted by the ability to turn clouds into rain and live forever?
In addition, Li Hongzhi also talked about the two realms of Jīdì and Língdòng. For practitioners, Jīdì is the same as Níng Yuán.
Through continuous cultivation, the vast divine thoughts of a cultivator will be compressed and refined bit by bit, until finally in the sea of consciousness, they condense into a primordial soul the size of a thumb.
This primordial soul is the culmination of all a Foundation Establishment cultivator's cultivation, and once the first primordial soul forms, it represents the cultivator entering a higher realm. The most obvious change is in their control over the surrounding heaven and earth spiritual energy, as well as magical tools, which becomes even more powerful.
In front of a Consolidation Period cultivator, even one who has just entered the Consolidation Period, their cultivation is not much higher than that of a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. However, the terrifying quality of their cultivation can easily suppress and render a Foundation Establishment cultivator unable to resist.
This is a terrifying phase transition, just like the difference between liquid water and morning dew. A layer of rain falls down, which can easily penetrate the fog layer, but the fog layer, no matter how thick it is, finds it very difficult to destroy the raindrop.
The cultivation of the Condensation Period is to continuously condense more yuan souls. One yuan soul is equivalent to the essence of a foundation-building cultivator's entire cultivation, and only when nine are condensed can one enter the middle stage of the Condensation Period. As for martial artists who have transcended the Spiritual Movement Period, they are called "detached from dust", detached from worldly dust, transforming the earthly into the immortal.
At the stage of dust removal, cultivators are already considered a kind of 6th-level immortal. With a wave of their hand, even without using any martial skills, they can turn the world upside down. Moreover, that is more powerful and shocking than Xu Yu's current Tianxuan-level martial skills. After all, Xu Yu's cultivation is too low at present.
No matter whether it is a cultivator in the condensing, foundation building, or core forming stage, there are two main characteristics: one can fly with their physical body, and when displaying martial skills or techniques, they can gather spiritual energy within a small range.
That kind of gathering, and Xu Yu's gathering by fusing spiritual energy, or the gathering arrays in the Cultivation Realm, are still fundamentally different. Xu Yu's gathering by fusing spiritual energy is to absorb all the surrounding spiritual energy, generally, the gathering arrays in the Cultivation Realm, or artifacts that can attract spiritual energy, also work this way.
But the gathering of practitioners in the dust removal period or the yuan condensation period is a single system gathering, for example, several dust removal period martial arts strongmen, once they display water system martial skills, then they will only extract water system spiritual power from the nearby spiritual energy, and other types of spiritual power will still remain on the spot, and the yuan condensation period is also the same.
The difference between the two is huge, one will absorb all the surrounding spiritual energy when used, while the other only extracts a certain type of spiritual power, and the overall spiritual energy in the area just becomes thinner.
This is also why when Xǔ Yú first demonstrated the Tiān Wǔ technique, he was able to gather spiritual energy. Those who learned of this news only suspected that he had a treasure that allowed him to gather spiritual energy, and never thought that it was because he was a strong practitioner in the Dust-Free stage. As for the two levels above that, Lǐ Hóng Huī didn't say much more, because he also didn't understand its meaning.
Apart from that, what he said was about some well-known, large-scale Xiuzhen island mountains and their spheres of influence overseas, or some special areas, such as some places with dense spiritual energy, but due to various reasons, they are too dangerous, and no one dares to occupy them.
As for some related things in Xiuzhen world such as alchemy, artifact refinement and formation spells, due to the short time he served, he didn't have a chance to mention them.
"Hehe, let's stop here for today. We have a long time ahead of us, and next time, Brother Xu can call me anytime if he has any more questions." After a night of conversation, the two were no longer as awkward as they had been at first. Li Honghui stood up after saying this, facing Xu Yu. "En," Xu Yu nodded with a smile, and in his heart, a hint of anticipation arose.
What he gained that night, everything else was nothing compared to the Five Elements Martial Technique, the true essence combined as one, which had a very high probability of helping martial artists break through their bottlenecks, and this truly made his heart race.
As long as the five elements are combined, even if it's a fifth-grade innate martial skill of the Earth element, it can still have a very high probability. However, an Earth-elemental martial skill is far less precious than a Heavenly Mystery martial skill. It's likely that he only needs to borrow the power of the Lin family and he'll have a good chance of collecting them all.
"The five elements merge as one, entering the Spiritual Movement Phase! If I can really break through and enter this phase, it would be a wonderful thing. Not only will my lifespan be extended, but at that time, I should still be able to continue using spiritual energy to enhance my cultivation, and then I'll be able to truly unleash the Heavenly Xuanwu Technique, allowing me to no longer fear ordinary Cultivation Sects."
Only he himself knew what was going on, and the last time he was able to leave Lifu Island calmly from outside, a big part of the reason was that he had also absorbed the spiritual energy inside Lifu Island, making the local spiritual energy extremely dense, and he could also freely cast "Tearing Heaven". If it were somewhere else, facing the siege of multiple foundation-building cultivators, he would not have been able to do it as easily as last time. However, if he really entered the Spiritual Movement stage, everything would be different again.
