In the Water Mansion, Chen Mobai sat upright on a rush cushion.

A radiance representing the five elements appeared on his face. After flashing past one by one, it finally turned into a deep earthen yellow.

This represented the Five Elements Technique circulating through one cycle. Then it became the color of white gold, and then metal generated water... the five elements generated one another, endlessly revolving. After nine Great Cycles, a bead of sweat appeared on Chen Mobai's forehead.

After a month of cultivation, nourished by the Second Grade spiritual energy of the Water Mansion, his Five Elements Technique had finally reached the peak of the fifth layer.

When the heat was right, he had to break through in one vigorous push.

This was what Venerable Qingping had said, and Chen Mobai now treated every word this Nascent Soul Venerable had spoken as a jade tablet and a golden rule. He did not hesitate at all. Sensing that he had already reached the final step before the threshold, he directly swallowed the Purple Fire Pill he had been holding in his mouth.

Although this kind of barrier-breaking pill only had a twenty to thirty percent efficiency for breaking through to Qi Cultivation Level 6, for Chen Mobai, it was already the best he could buy.

The Immortal Sect had no fewer than tens of thousands of medicinal pills and Spiritual Waters, but those that could help cultivators break through realm barriers were always the most sought-after.

In ordinary pharmacies, this kind of pill was not sold at all. Even if there were any, at most they would only increase the success rate by half a tenth or one tenth.

For ordinary cultivators who wanted to buy good things, their only hope lay in the pills released at intervals by those major Medicine Factories or the Immortal Sect's official flagship stores. They were basically all fine products.

The Purple Fire Pill was one of them.

After the pill entered his stomach, the sugar coating on its surface was instantly dissolved by spiritual power. Then a gentle yang energy spread out, instantly flowing through his entire body.

Chen Mobai's Five Elements Technique, which had already been circulating to its limit, seemed to be given a shove in an instant and abruptly advanced into the sixth layer.

But this did not mean his breakthrough had succeeded.

Breaking the realm was easy, but after breaking through, keeping the realm stable and preventing it from falling back was what mattered most.

A wisp of purple qi faintly appeared between his brows.

The purple qi rose slightly like smoke and fire, but in the next moment, it looked as if it was about to go out again.

This meant the medicinal power was beginning to run out, while the Great Cycle of the Five Elements Technique had only been mostly completed. If he could not complete one full circuit of the technique, it would mean this breakthrough had failed.

But Chen Mobai did not panic. He steadied his mind and placed his hand on a Spirit Stone beside him.

Although this was his first time refining a Spirit Stone, he had searched up quite a lot of related content on the Auxiliary Cultivation Software. He already had the key points and taboos clear in his chest.

With the help of the Spirit Stone, Chen Mobai's realm, which had been about to slide back down, stabilized again. He even completed a Great Cycle quite easily.

Qi Cultivation Level 6—done! Opening his eyes, Chen Mobai, whose face had always been calm, could not help laughing with joy.

His hard work over the past month had not been wasted.

Of course, although being able to break through to Qi Cultivation Level 6 was due to many factors, he knew very well that the greatest credit for being able to break through within a month still belonged to Venerable Qingping's lecture Video.

A great power of the Nascent Soul Realm, looking down from a high house upon roof tiles, had explained the Five Elements Technique of the Qi Cultivation Chapter so thoroughly it was beyond words.

Over the past month, Chen Mobai had watched his Videos at school during the day and come to the Water Mansion at night to apply what he had learned. Adding in the spiritual energy of this Second Grade treasure land, as well as the assistance of the Purple Fire Pill and Spirit Stone, he felt that if he still could not break through, then he really would have been stupid.

"Should I prepare to switch cultivation techniques?"

After being excited for a while, Chen Mobai soon calmed down again and returned to reality.

The Immortal Sect had rules. When any cultivator began Qi Cultivation, they had to cultivate the Five Elements Technique. Once they reached the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation, they could choose whether to continue cultivating the Five Elements Technique or switch to another cultivation technique.

The advantages and disadvantages of the Five Elements Technique were both very clear. For cultivators with average Spirit Root Attributes, it could keep their cultivation speed from being slow, but their combat ability was ordinary. However, the Adaptive Spiritual Power of the Five Elements Technique could be converted without obstruction into any attribute's cultivation technique.

Chen Mobai's mother, Tang Pancui, cultivated the Five Elements Technique. She had been stuck at the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation for many years, but her mindset was very good.

Chen Mobai's father, Chen Xinglan, had switched to a "Molten Fire Art," which he had paid to learn over at Crimson Cloud Academy. He was now at Qi Cultivation Level 8 and worked in the workshop of a certain Magic Artifact factory. That company provided Grade 1 High Rank spiritual energy dormitories to its employees for free. To save some money, he lived at the company most of the time.

The Immortal Sect National Library had an Artificial Primordial Spirit. As long as one entered one's Spirit Root Attribute, it would automatically match the most suitable cultivation technique and Dao Scripture.

It only required 1 Point to try this function.

Chen Mobai had tried it before when he was bored, and the result the Artificial Primordial Spirit gave was the Five Elements Technique, making his face turn green on the spot.

This meant that although he had a True Spirit Root, there was basically no difference between him and a False Spirit Root.

But now, things were different.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai opened his phone and tapped open the Immortal Sect National Library Software.

But he immediately discovered that his phone had no signal.

"I almost forgot. Over here at the Water Mansion, only the 'Auxiliary Cultivation' Software, which has been proxied by Turtle Treasure, has signal..."

Chen Mobai looked at the time. Although it was still early, he decided to go back earlier.

For a period of time after using a Purple Fire Pill to break through, one could not cultivate and could only use the Qi Nourishing Technique to warm and nourish the meridians. But for the second half of Chen Mobai's cycle, he had used the pure spiritual energy within the Spirit Stone, which seemed to have completely neutralized the yang fire effects of the pill. He did not feel the kind of swollen fullness in his meridians that he had when he broke through to Qi Cultivation Fifth Layer.

It was as if, without needing to warm and nourish them, the realm of Qi Cultivation Level 6 had already been thoroughly stabilized.

However, to be safe, Chen Mobai still did not continue cultivating today.

There was no hurry for a moment. Cultivating immortality also required balancing work and rest.

Just as he put away the Spirit Stone he had sucked dry, a sudden pop-up window abruptly appeared on his phone screen.

Enable proxy?

Huh? After only a brief moment of surprise, Chen Mobai thought of the huge help Venerable Qingping's lecture Videos had given him and was just about to tap yes.

But the instant his finger was about to press down, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck him. He remembered the Fifth Order halo after the "Auxiliary Cultivation" Software had been proxied, and his face instantly turned white.

His hand trembled, and in fright, he immediately tapped no.

This was the National Library, the foundation of the Immortal Sect. It was not Software from some small workshop.

Once he became a Fifth Order user of this National Library, even if the Immortal Sect Three Great Halls had to turn the entire Earth Origin Star upside down, they would find this person.

But Chen Mobai also felt it was a great pity to give up this proxy.

He hurriedly tapped open the Turtle Treasure Software and found that the proxy button was raised and lit, indicating it could be used. Only then did he let out a breath of relief.

How exactly was this function triggered? Chen Mobai thought of the Qi Cultivation Level 6 he had just broken through to. Could it be that every breakthrough could activate it once?

But why had it taken several days last time?

Was it because this breakthrough was perfect and his realm had stabilized?
