But Old Ancestor of Five Elements' inherited cultivation method was beneath Su Ming's notice.
Yet this Dao arena and these five spiritual veins had sent him an enormous gift!
With a thought, Su Ming's primordial spirit sank into this newly formed Small World Dao arena.
He looked at the ancient and imposing Five Elements Dao Palace in the center, and a new idea arose in his mind.
"Still not enough."
"Having only spiritual energy is too monotonous."
Su Ming swept his Divine Sense across his storage space and quickly locked onto one item.
It was the supreme treasure—Nine Heavens Breathing Soil—that he had obtained by signing in at Buzhou Mountain!
This item was formed from the essence of the earth's origin. A small handful could transform into a vast, boundless stretch of land. It was also supreme divine soil for planting all Innate Spiritual Roots and Acquired Spiritual Roots.
Without hesitation, he took out the mass of Nine Heavens Breathing Soil radiating a Mysterious Yellow light.
Without the slightest hesitation, he directly threw the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil into the Small World.
Boom!
The moment the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil entered the Small World, it expanded with the wind, instantly transforming into a Mysterious Yellow Earth spanning hundreds of millions of li. It fused perfectly with the land that had already existed.
An extremely dense vitality and earth-origin power instantly permeated the entire world.
The land, which had only just begun to show traces of green, instantly became incomparably fertile under the nourishment of the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil.
One spiritual herb and immortal flower after another broke through the soil and swayed in the wind. In only a few breaths, they had matured to tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of years!
The entire Small World transformed into a true Blessed Land Cave Heaven, an immortal paradise!
"Very good!"
Su Ming nodded in satisfaction.
He waved his hand again, planting the supreme-grade Innate Spiritual Root—the Five Elements Fruit Tree—that he had just looted from the Five Elements Dao Palace's treasury, along with a large amount of Innate Spiritual Materials, in this medicinal field formed from the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil.
The moment the Five Elements Fruit Tree entered the divine soil, its roots crazily burrowed deep into the earth, greedily absorbing the origin power of the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil and the Five Elements Spiritual Veins.
Its originally listless leaves instantly became lush and verdant, flashing with five-colored divine light. It even faintly showed signs of blooming and bearing fruit.
Only after completing all this did Su Ming stop.
He looked at the vibrant Small World before him, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.
With the Five Elements Dao Palace as his residence, five supreme-grade spiritual veins providing energy, Nine Heavens Breathing Soil transformed into a medicinal field, and time flowing ten times faster...
This place would become his most important secret base in the future!
He could safely seclude himself here and comprehend the Great Dao of Chaos.
He could also bring the core members of the Wu Clan here and crazily increase their strength.
In the future, he could even bring in people he trusted, such as the Six-Eared Macaque.
The role this small Sea Calming Divine Bead could play in the future was immeasurable!
After admiring his masterpiece to his heart's content, Su Ming's thoughts stirred, and his primordial spirit withdrew from the Small World Dao arena.
He returned to Five Elements Valley.
At this moment, the valley remained empty and quiet. Only a gentle breeze swept past, carrying traces of the remaining Five Elements Dao resonance.
"Hum!"
Just then, two powerful auras shot into the sky from not far away.
Su Ming turned his head and saw that Kong Xuan and Golden Peng, who had been sitting cross-legged, had opened their eyes at some point.
The qi of the five elements circulated endlessly around them, transforming into divine rings that enveloped them.
Behind Kong Xuan, the Five-Colored Divine Light appeared and disappeared intermittently. It was several times more solid than before, and his aura had also become increasingly deep and vast.
As for Golden Peng, his entire body radiated a sharp aura. His golden magical power surged like an unparalleled divine weapon about to leave its sheath, its edge fully revealed!
Their cultivation had astonishingly advanced from the Early Taiyi Golden Immortal stage to the middle stage of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm!
Although it was only a breakthrough of one minor realm, for cultivators with such profound Origins, the increase in strength was worlds apart.
"Thank you, Great Venerable, for bestowing this technique!"
Kong Xuan rose and bowed respectfully to Su Ming. The gratitude and awe in his eyes could no longer be concealed.
That Great Five Elements Reincarnation Method was simply a supreme scripture tailor-made for him!
His brief period of comprehension had not only allowed his cultivation to break through, but had also given him an entirely new understanding of his innate divine ability—the Five-Colored Divine Light.
He had a premonition that as long as he completely mastered this cultivation method, his future achievements would absolutely not stop at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm!
"Big Brother! This cultivation method is incredible!"
Golden Peng also ran over excitedly. His handsome face was filled with exhilaration as he gesticulated and said, "I feel like I can beat ten former versions of myself now! Yin-Yang and the Five Elements—I can actually cultivate this technique too!"
Su Ming looked at the two of them and nodded slightly.
His gaze swept over them, but his brows lifted almost imperceptibly.
"Not bad. You have both improved."
He first offered a word of approval, then changed the subject.
"However, you broke through too quickly. Your auras are unstable, and your foundations are unsteady."
"This is like building a tower on sand. It may look tall and imposing, but it will collapse at the slightest push. If you do not stabilize yourselves in time, it will not only affect your future cultivation—you may even suffer Dao Injuries and sever your path ahead."
Su Ming's voice was not loud, but it was like a basin of cold water, instantly extinguishing Golden Peng's excitement.
Kong Xuan also grew solemn and carefully sensed his own condition. He indeed discovered that although the magical power within him had multiplied, its circulation had gained a trace of sluggishness. It was no longer as smooth and harmonious as before.
"This..."
Both their expressions changed. Only then did they realize the seriousness of the problem.
They had been dazzled by an enormous opportunity. They had focused solely on increasing their cultivation and neglected the most important foundation.
"Please enlighten us, Master!"
Kong Xuan and Golden Peng bowed deeply once more, their expressions utterly sincere.
They knew that Su Ming, who had been able to discover this problem, must have a way to resolve it.
Looking at their nervous yet trusting gazes, Su Ming smiled calmly.
"Do not panic."
He slowly sat down cross-legged. An indescribably profound aura spread from his body.
In an instant, the Five Elements laws throughout Five Elements Valley seemed to come alive. They surrounded him, cheering and leaping like ministers paying homage to their king.
"Sit properly. Quiet your minds and focus your spirits."
Su Ming's voice seemed to carry a certain magic that instantly calmed the minds of Kong Xuan and Golden Peng.
They hurriedly followed his example and sat cross-legged opposite him.
Su Ming looked at them and slowly began to speak.
"There are three thousand Great Daos. Yin-Yang and the Five Elements are merely the tip of the iceberg."
"Today, I shall explain to you what the Great Dao is!"
