Free Web NovelChapter 624: Chapter 413: When Heaven Does Not Take, It Is to Its Detriment
[The Hundred Skills of Cultivation ushered in a wave of development, and nowadays nearly every cultivator has at least one of these skills.]
[More mortals are stepping onto the Path of Cultivation.]
[The entire Wanlang Mountains seemed to transform from stagnation to vitality.]
[The losses from the Peach Blossom Divinity Transformation disaster were fully compensated, and the strength far exceeded that of the Wanlang Mountains before the Dao Guide Team was established.]
[Many cultivators publicly call the era since the Dao Guide Team took control of the Wanlang Mountains as the best era.]
[Many cultivators have erected your enormous statue at the very center of the Wanlang Mountains.]
[You even gain unexpected Power of Faith during your daily cultivation, leaving you both amused and helpless.]
[Void Abyss Beasts have retreated to the Void Abyss, and development of the Secret Realm continues.]
[One by one, the Secret Realm Worlds are being merged into the Wanlang Mountains.]
[According to the Dao Guide Team’s estimates, within a century, the Spiritless Lands of the entire Wanlang Mountains can basically be eradicated.]
[Through the River Map, you can feel the River Map Inference’s rapidly rising capabilities.]
[You have already utilized the River Map Inference capabilities to break through the Divinity Transformation Technique, and the stronger the inference power, the more delighted you naturally become.]
[However, when you activate the River Map, you can feel that it seems influenced by a second entity.]
[Through your research and observation.]
[The inference capability of the River Map might relate to two aspects, firstly your influence; you’ve discarded previous assumptions because though you do not fully control the Wanlang Mountains, the results are outstanding.]
[The second might be something akin to merit, yet inaccurately so; you can sense something unseen and untouchable descending upon you as the Secret Realms merge into the Wanlang Mountains.]
[You speculate this to be the legendary merit.]
[Still, despite attempting many good deeds, there is no change in ’merit’.]
[You guess it might involve doing something beneficial to the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm?]
[Regardless, the inference capability of your River Map Illusion has greatly enhanced.]
[The whole Wanlang Mountains regard you as a leader, and you are unanimously recognized as the future for Divinity Transformation.]
[Only you know that Divinity Transformation is not so simple, as you continue to desperately search for that strand of Spiritual Mechanism.]
[In the year 5620 of the New Source Era, news arrives from the Five Elements Immortal Sect that the Five Elements True Master awakens and seeks to meet you.]
[You utilize a Token to enter the Immortal Grotto Heaven.]
[Having experienced much in the Wanlang Mountains, you’ve developed an aura of supremacy, such that even disciples with Nascent Soul Perfect Cultivation instinctively lower their heads in greeting upon seeing you.]
[You return the courtesy, surprisingly greeted by the True Immortal under the bewildered gazes of the sect disciples.]
[You once again meet the Five Elements True Immortal, who no longer has the hollow semblance from your last encounter; rather, you cannot sense the True Immortal’s strength.]
"Zhong Heng, paying respects to the Immortal."
Zhong Heng bows deeply.
The Five Elements True Immortal nods slightly.
With a wave of his hand, a technique flashes into Zhong Heng’s mind.
Zhong Heng is startled internally.
Looking closely, it is a Supreme Scripture named "Taihe Five Elements Profound Gang Secret Technique."
"Directly pointing to the Great Dao!"
This thought arises instinctively in Zhong Heng’s heart.
The technique is unfathomably profound, as if it contains the universe’s deepest secrets. It involves the mutual generation and restriction of the Five Elements, and with just a glance, the Five Elements Atlas seems to appear before him.
Each force among the elements serpentines like a dragon, intertwining to form a mysterious and unpredictable scene.
If using the current River Map for inference, it might take at least three thousand years to deduce this technique.
It encompasses the paths of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Divinity Transformation, and True Immortal.
Beyond this, each person’s path varies; however, the technique’s more profound aspect aids cultivators in continuing on the Immortal Path.
This technique is unquestionably an Immortal Scripture, barely found among various Immortal Sects.
Perhaps only disciples of an Immortal can access it.
Moreover, not just any Immortal.
Zhong Heng carefully imprints the technique within his mind and spirit.
Then he raises his head to gaze at the Five Elements True Immortal.
Of course, the True Immortal possesses True Immortal cultivation, the introductory level of Immortal existence.
Ordinary True Immortals cannot present such cultivation techniques.
"Have you returned..."
Zhong Heng inquired respectfully.
The Five Elements True Immortal’s eyes flickered slightly.
Then he shook his head.
"The Five Spirits Immortal Venerable tells you many things."
"But presently, I am not that being."
"Returning from the long river of time is not so easily done."
"However, the karmic ties between me and that being are already too deep, perhaps I was meant to be him."
The Five Elements True Immortal’s eyes briefly showed confusion.
Yet he showed no aversion to Kong Xuan’s return, instead intending to fully aid in his return.
Indeed, the Peacock Great Saint has not entirely returned.
But seemingly has at least partially returned.
Otherwise, the Immortal once known as Void Whale would not directly address the Five Elements True Immortal as Kong Xuan.
However, not too much is returned, or else the intervention of the Star River Sword Immortal would be unnecessary; Kong Xuan could crush Void Whale with a finger.
Kong Xuan, the first generation Peacock Great Saint, was one of the top existences during the Ancient Wilderness Era in the Jiuzhou Cultivation Realm.
If he truly appears, perhaps it’s likely he’d notice my River Map.
And possibly uncover secrets from my past life too.
Still... how did such an existence originally perish?
"You have aided me a lot, I have used quite a bit of your Qi of the Five Elements, I can grant you some wishes."
