Cultivation: When you take things to the extreme

Chapter 535: Chapter 324: Angel_2

The Five Elements Immortal Mansion is of the former, an heirloom from a Heavenly Immortal from the Upper Realm. For some reason, it ended up in the mortal world and was ultimately obtained by Feng Chaoyang, the Five Elements Saint Son.

Not only did Feng Chaoyang acquire the Five Elements Immortal Mansion and the Five Elements Immortal Root, but he also inherited the Heavenly Immortal’s cultivation techniques.

According to the celestial ranking system of the Upper Realm, those who have passed the Ninefold Celestial Tribulation are considered Human Immortals, who are ranked at the ninth order.

Above Human Immortals are Earth Immortals, who are ranked at the tenth order.

Above Earth Immortals are Heavenly Immortals, who are of the eleventh tier.

Heavenly Immortals, even in the Upper Realm, are powerful beings. The ancestor of the Five Elements Immortal Sect is such a cultivator.

The significance of a Heavenly Immortal can thus be seen!

This Heavenly Immortal, who had attained the Longevity Dao Fruit, for some unknown reason perished, and his mansion fell to the mortal world. All of his inheritance was acquired by Feng Chaoyang.

Therefore, it’s no surprise that Feng Chaoyang decided to defect from the Five Elements Immortal Sect. Even as a Saint Son, he wasn’t entitled to own the inheritance of a Heavenly Immortal. It had to be offered up to the Mahayana True Immortals, including those reclusive Tribulation-Passing Ancestors.

How could he accept that?

Thus, he resolutely defected from the Five Elements Immortal Sect, even managing to take a significant share of their resources in the process.

Unfortunately, the inheritance from the Heavenly Immortal was too profound. Despite Feng Chaoyang’s talent, he only comprehended the part pertaining to the Tribulation Passing Human Immortal. The Earth Immortal and Heavenly Immortal sections remained within the Five Elements Immortal Mansion and are now in the possession of the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

But no matter, since apart from cultivation techniques, this Heavenly Immortal was also a “Spiritual Plant Farmer!”

His expertise in cultivating spirit plants had reached the tenth tier, an extremely rare occurrence even in the Upper Realm.

Not only that, but by chance, he also acquired the “Heaven and Earth Root!”

Indeed, the Heaven and Earth Root, this ancient tree is not some Five Elements Immortal Root but a Heaven and Earth Root, a world seed. The power of the Five Elements is merely its base; it also contains the paths of space and time within. Once it blossoms and bears fruit, it can achieve a world.

After obtaining this Spiritual Root, the Heavenly Immortal wished to ascend to the Golden Immortal rank, as creation is the authority of a Golden Immortal.

To this end, the Heavenly Immortal, based on his own cultivation technique and the tenth order spirit plant cultivation, deduced a Golden Immortal Law. It involved merging the Heaven and Earth Root into himself, bearing the fruit of the world, in order to ascend to Golden Immortal.

Regrettably, he perished before his work was completed.

To sum up, through Feng Chaoyang, Xu Yang gained a portion of this Heavenly Immortal’s legacy: a Human Immortal cultivation technique of the ninth order, a spirit plant cultivation method of the highest tenth order, yet due to incompleteness, only reaching the level of the eighth order, and a Heaven and Earth Root capable of bearing the fruit of the world.

The ninth order Human Immortal technique goes without saying; like the Five Elements Immortal Scripture, it was invested in the Wandao School to serve as the foundation of Immortal Path cultivation. The cultivation realms of the World of Dao and Law and the Divine Martial World can rely on it to directly cultivate to the Human Immortal realm.

The eighth order spirit plant cultivation method will also form the foundation of the Scholar’s Palace, and with its skill characteristics combined with the Divine Martial Tao Method from two lifetimes, it might be possible to cultivate seventh rank spirit plants, taking the “Farming Great Law” up a notch, acquiring more resources, and driving the development of the school.

As for the Heaven and Earth Root…

Though it’s a treasure, even touching upon the Dao fruit of a “Golden Immortal,” it’s still too far out of reach for Xu Yang at the moment, and he lacks the ability to make it bear fruit.

However, within the Five Elements Immortal Sect, there is a secret technique inheritance that can cultivate the Five Elements Spiritual Roots and Five Elements Spiritual Body using Five Elements Spiritual Objects. If combined with this Heaven and Earth Root, it could even refine the legendary Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Body.

This hit Xu Yang right where it mattered.

As a cultivator lacking a Spiritual Root, it has always been his sore point, especially after experiencing the effects of a Spiritual Root through an avatar.

He has always wanted to create a Spiritual Root for himself. The Wandao School even established research topics on this, but the great mystery of the human body is too profound, and up to now, there have been no results.

Although Xu Yang has an advantage, being able to use the power of his Divine Soul to transfer “Kong Xuan’s” Five Elements Spiritual Root talent to him, similar to how “Xu Qingyu’s” Thunder Commanding Power was transferred before.

But after trying, Xu Yang found that the transmission cost for the Five Elements Spiritual Root was ten million times that of the Thunder Commanding Power, even more severe than directly transferring objects. With his current Divine Soul strength, he simply couldn’t do the transfer.

So, he still doesn’t have a Spiritual Root.

The secret technique of the Five Elements Immortal Sect alleviated this worry. By collecting five sixth-rank Five Elements Spiritual Objects, it would be possible to cultivate a Yellow Spirit grade Spiritual Root of the lower quality for a common person without a Spiritual Root.

Then, by continually purifying it with spiritual objects, a seventh rank can promote a lower Yellow Spirit to a Superior Grade Heavenly Spirit, and an eighth rank can raise the Superior Grade Heavenly Spirit to a Five Elements Spiritual Body.

The cost is substantial. Sixth rank spiritual objects are already at the pinnacle in the Southern Sea and are rarely seen outside of auction events. As for seventh rank… no one dares to categorize seventh rank spiritual objects in the Southern Sea. Even the Star Sovereign Iron brought out by Li Cangwu last time, is but sixth rank.

This demonstrates the value of seventh rank spiritual objects. For Xu Yang now, they are also a luxury.

But that’s alright, the journey is taken step by step, and meals are eaten one bite at a time. What can’t be obtained now doesn’t mean it can’t ever be obtained. First, gather sixth rank spiritual objects, refine a Five Elements Spiritual Root, and plan for the subsequent needs slowly.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

This way, step by step, perhaps it will truly be possible to refine the legendary Five Elements Immortal Spiritual Body with the Heaven and Earth Root.

…

The inheritance of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, the ninth order Human Immortal Law, the eighth order spirit plant cultivation method, the seventh order Four Arts Skills, the sixth order Hundred Arts Spell, and a Heaven and Earth Root—all of this was brought to Xu Yang by the treasure-delivering child.

In exchange for an Immortal Spirit Mech Armor, he gained so many techniques and an indeterminable level Heaven and Earth Immortal Root. This transaction was a massive profit.

Xu Yang was very satisfied but had no intention of stopping there.
