In the cave, the purified Life Engraving Knife was quietly suspended in mid-air.
The blade is silver-white, with golden lines flowing slowly like water waves.
The blue-green piece of Gold of Life in the center is pulsating as if alive, exuding a majestic and heart-stopping breath of life.
Lin Ciyan held the carving knife, felt the warm pulse from his palm, and began to think seriously about a question--
How to use this thing?
In the original work, he remembers very clearly how Huo Yuhao used Gold of Life after he obtained it: with the help of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux, Gold of Life was integrated into Sea of Consciousness, which greatly improved his mental power and vitality, and even later "resurrected" with this vitality.
But that plan had several obvious "pitfalls."
First of all, external assistance was needed - Huo Yuhao had Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, a million-year-old Soul Beast, and Electrolux, a demigod-level remnant soul, to help.
Lin Ciyan Although there is a system, the system prefers "providing services" rather than "acting personally".
Secondly, although the integration of Sea of Consciousness is safe, the effect is average, not to mention the efficiency... it can only be said to be quite satisfactory.
The energy of Gold of Life will be released slowly over a long period of time, belonging to the "long-flowing" type.
The most important thing is that Huo Yuhao's physical fitness and mental strength at that time were far inferior to Lin Ciyan now.
He needs that kind of gentle fusion, but Lin Ciyan doesn't.
"My Holy Radiance Qilin Martial Soul has Ultimate Light and sacred attributes, and has a natural affinity for life energy." Lin Ciyan murmured to himself.
"And after several years of training, my physical fitness has become comparable to that of Soul Emperor, and my mental strength, with the support of Xiyao and the system, is far superior to the same level."
"More importantly... I already have the prototype of Five Elements's basic attributes in my body."
He closed his eyes and carefully felt the changes in his body.
When the purification was completed and Gold of Life was completely exposed, he could clearly feel that the basic elements representing the wood attribute in Sea of Consciousness were jumping for joy.
It's like a traveler who has been thirsty for a long time sees a clear spring.
It's like a traveler walking in darkness sees the light.
That is the attraction that comes from the essence of life.
"Maybe... we can change our thinking." Lin Ciyan opened his eyes, a light of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Instead of integrating Gold of Life into Sea of Consciousness, use the basic element of wood attribute of Holy Radiance Qilin to directly absorb its vitality."
"Then, use the wood attribute as a bridge to feed this majestic vitality back to the four attributes of gold, water, fire, and earth."
"Five Elements creates each other, and the cycle continues."
The inspiration for this plan comes from his understanding of the essence of Five Elements.
In traditional understanding, vitality is indeed most closely related to the attribute of wood - wood is responsible for hair growth, which represents growth and vitality.
The water attribute is second - water is the main source of moisture, and the growth of all things cannot be separated from the nourishment of water.
The attribute of earth is once again - the owner of earth is the foundation of all life.
But few people realize that the properties of fire and metal are also closely related to vitality.
Fire dominates warmth - without suitable temperature, life cannot be maintained.
Metallicity mainly kills - but the other side of chilling is metabolism and renewal.
Cell apoptosis and regeneration are essentially a "golden" process.
Five Elements If everything is complete, life can be complete.
Thinking of this, Lin Ciyan no longer hesitated.
He sat cross-legged, placed Life Engraving Knife flat on his knees, and pressed his hands on both sides of the blade.
Holy Radiance Qilin Martial Soul was quietly released.
Soft golden light emerged from the body, condensing into a virtual shadow of Qilin behind him.
Qilin's four hooves are stepping on the auspicious clouds, and the whole body is surrounded by a faint five-color halo - which is the weak manifestation of the five basic elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
Lin Ciyan sank all his mind into his body, guided the basic element of wood attribute, and slowly approached Gold of Life on his lap.
The moment of contact--
"Buzz!"
A green light rises into the sky!
The indescribably majestic vitality is like a flood that bursts a bank, following the guidance of the wood attribute elements and pouring crazily into Lin Ciyan's body.
The feeling... is indescribable.
It's like a person who has been walking in the desert for seven days and suddenly jumps into a clear lake.
Just like a person shivering in the cold winter, he is suddenly surrounded by the warm sunshine.
Every cell is cheering, every ray of Soul Power is jumping for joy.
Lin Ciyan's body began to change.
The first thing is the skin - the originally healthy complexion gradually takes on a faint golden luster, and under the golden color, there is a light green halo of life flowing.
The two colors intertwined and merged to form a sacred and vibrant brilliance.
Then there are muscles and bones.
He could clearly feel that every muscle fiber in his body was being washed and strengthened by life energy.
The bones make a subtle "crackling" sound, which means that the bone density is increasing and the bone marrow is regenerating.
The most obvious changes occur in the meridians.
The meridians, which were already wide and tough, were further widened and strengthened under the wash of life energy, like a newly dug river channel.
The speed of Soul Power flowing in it has increased by at least 30%.
But this is just the beginning.
With the continuous influx of vitality, the basic elements of wood attribute in Lin Ciyan's body grew rapidly.
The green light spot that was originally just a weak prototype has now condensed into a green seed, slowly rotating in the Dantian.
And every time this "Wood Seed" rotates, it will release a stream of pure life energy and flow to the other four attributes--
The golden metallic light spots absorbed life energy and became more solid and sharp.
The blue water attribute light spots absorb life energy and become softer and deeper.
The red fire attribute light spots absorb life energy and become warmer and more active.
The yellow earth attribute light spots absorb life energy and become thicker and more stable.
Five Elements mutual generation, the cycle starts.
What surprised Lin Ciyan even more was that as his vitality washed away, some deep-seated "impurities" in his body began to be discharged.
These impurities include: some indigestible energy residues from the Soul Beast meat eaten over the years, medicinal residues that have not been fully absorbed from the precious medicinal materials taken, and even trace amounts of toxins produced by the natural metabolism of the body since childhood and accumulated deep in the cells.
A Sisi gray-black impurities are discharged from the pores.
At first there was just a thin layer of sweat with a faint fishy smell.
But as the vitality washes away more and more, more and more impurities are discharged, forming a layer of sticky dirt on the surface of the skin.
And as these impurities are discharged, Lin Ciyan can clearly feel--
The real energy of the Soul Beast meat that I ate before and the medicinal materials that I took was being completely absorbed.
The energy that was originally trapped in the body and difficult to call out is now completely integrated into the flesh and blood Soul Power under the urging of vitality.
Physical fitness has ushered in a second leap.
If his physical strength was comparable to Soul Emperor before, now... he has firmly stepped into the threshold of Soul Emperor, and is still improving.
Time passes slowly in profound transformation.
Outside the cave, the sky turned from darkness to dawn, and then from dawn to noon.
Lin Ciyan was completely immersed in the process of absorption, forgetting the passage of time.
The Five Elements basic elements in his body have grown from the initial faint light points into five stable "seeds".
Wood Seed is green, slowly rotating in the center of the Dantian, continuously drawing life force from Gold of Life.
Gold Seed is pure white, suspended on the right side of Wood Seed, exuding a sharp aura.
Water Seed is blue, suspended on the left side of Wood Seed, flowing with soft ripples.
Core Flame is red, suspended above Wood Seed, dancing with warm flames.
Earth Seed is bright yellow, suspended below Wood Seed, exuding a heavy aura.
The five seeds form a perfect five-pointed star array, with Wood Seed as the core, in which life energy circulates, creating and inhibiting each other, achieving a delicate balance.
The size of the Gold of Life on my lap has been reduced by about one-sixth.
Lin Ciyan did not continue to absorb the remaining part.
Firstly, the body is close to saturation - absorbing too much vitality in a short period of time is not conducive to complete digestion. Secondly... he needs an "energy storage device".
"Just put it on Sea of Consciousness." Lin Ciyan made the decision.
Sea of Consciousness is the safest and most core area of Soul Master.
Storing the remaining Gold of Life there can not only continuously release life energy to nourish the mind and body, but also can be called upon at critical moments - such as rapid recovery when seriously injured, or as a boost when a bottleneck needs to be broken through in the future.
He guided a ray of spiritual power and enveloped the remaining Gold of Life.
The blue-green gemstone trembled slightly, and then turned into a stream of light, which followed the guidance of spiritual power and sank into the center of Lin Ciyan's eyebrows.
In the sea of spirit.
The originally calm "sea surface" stirred up huge waves the moment Gold of Life entered.
The pale golden ocean of mental power is dyed with a layer of blue-green halo. Gold of Life is suspended in the middle of the ocean, like a second sun, continuously releasing warm life energy.
Part of these energies nourish Sea of Consciousness itself, making the spiritual power more solid and pure.
The other part continuously feeds back the physical body through the connection between Sea of Consciousness and the body.
From now on, even if Lin Ciyan does nothing, his physical and mental strength will slowly improve at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people under the nourishment of Gold of Life.
In this wave, the "automatic training" plug-in has been unlocked.
And the moment Gold of Life was completely integrated into Sea of Consciousness--
Lin Ciyan I could feel that deep inside Sea of Consciousness, a woman who had been sleeping for a long time moved slightly.
Xiyao?
Before he could think about it carefully, the final changes in the absorption process had already arrived.
Five Five Elements seeds vibrate at the same time.
The energy of the five attributes of metal, wood, water, fire and earth has completed the final fusion under the connection of vitality.
Lin Ciyan's body bloomed with brilliant five-color light.
In the light, the phantom of Holy Radiance Qilin looked up to the sky and roared, and Auspicious Domain automatically unfolded, covering the entire cave.
Within the scope of the domain, the phantoms of vegetation grow out of thin air, the illusion of flowing water gurgling, the light and shadow of flames vibrating warmly, the luster of metal flashes, and the breath of the earth is thick.
Five Elements is complete and the field is sublimated.
When the light finally converged, Lin Ciyan slowly opened his eyes.
He looked down at his hands.
The skin is as crystal clear as jade, with a faint precious light flowing through it.
When you make a fist, you can feel the explosive power contained in the muscles.
Soul Power rushes through the meridians like a river, extremely smooth.
His mental power has reached a whole new level - his current range of mental perception is at least three times that of before.
Moreover, the precision of perception has also been greatly improved.
He could even "see" dust floating in the air and "hear" the sound of a beetle crawling thirty meters outside the cave.
"This wave... is so profitable." Lin Ciyan murmured.
He tried to mobilize the power of Five Elements.
With a thought, a golden light appeared in the palm of his right hand - metallic control.
A green light spot appeared in the palm of his left hand - wood attribute control.
With another thought, the metallic light turned into red flames, and the woody light points turned into blue water balls.
Five Elements transformation, whatever you want.
The potential for future growth is limitless.
"And the most important thing is..." Lin Ciyan felt the full vitality in his body.
"My recovery ability now has probably reached a perverted level."
He casually made a small cut on his arm.
The wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after two seconds, not even a scar was left.
"With this self-healing speed, some people believe that I am a humanoid Soul Beast." Lin Ciyan smiled.
But just as he was preparing to further test the changes in his body--
In Sea of Consciousness, a soft and somewhat lazy voice rang.
"Ci Yan..."
The voice was very soft and soft, as if a girl who had just woken up was talking in her sleep.
"How long... how long have I been asleep?"
