The Five-Element Spiritual Roots Form, and a Path of Dual Cultivation
Inside the Grotto-Heaven, a Golden Falcon circled in the sky, leaving behind streaks of golden rainbow-like shadows.
It let out a joyful whimper, then landed back on the ceiling.
Its enormous body is now larger than the pavilion, but fortunately the pavilion is extremely sturdy and cannot be crushed.
But its gaze remained fixed on the distance.
That place is the Spirit Herb Garden, where the Golden Sun Ganoderma is grown, so it naturally cannot eat the Golden Sun Ganoderma.
However, it could catch a few strands of the Metal Attribute Spiritual Qi gathered by the Golden Sun Ganoderma. Although the effect was not significant, it was the best way for the Golden Falcon to advance its cultivation level besides using elixirs.
It glanced at the golden light in the open field beside it, where the Golden-Scaled Beast had already begun their attack.
The endless golden earth spikes, the constantly falling giant star rocks, and the interspersed and shimmering Earth-Scale Seal —if it weren't for the Array blocking out the sound, the rumbling noise would probably have resounded throughout the entire Grotto-Heaven.
It let out two low growls. It was powerless against the Golden-Scaled Beast's diligence. It didn't have a breathing technique, and its recovery ability was far inferior to that of the Golden-Scaled Beast, the Crimson Flame Fox, and the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon.
Naturally, they cannot cultivate as diligently as the Golden-Scaled Beast.
However, Golden Falcon was still satisfied with the Crimson Flame Fox and Jade-Scale Flood Dragon's laziness.
Especially the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon, which was lying prone beneath the lake's surface, its massive mouth following the movements of the Red-Node Fish and Star-Eating Fish.
It just waited for the time to come, when Ye Jingcheng gave it permission to eat, and then it swallowed it whole.
They truly lived up to the name of keeping these fish at their fingertips.
I don't want to make even a single unnecessary movement.
Just then, Ye Jingcheng stepped in, and all the Spirit Beast rushed towards Ye Jingcheng.
Only Jade-Scale Flood Dragon hesitated.
The time to eat fish is almost here.
But it didn't hesitate for long before abandoning the Red-Node Fish and heading towards Ye Jingcheng.
I can still tell the difference between small fish and large pieces of meat.
However, unlike in the past when he would feed the Spirit Beast first, Ye Jingcheng went straight for the Golden Sun Ganoderma today.
His eyes were full of longing. Now, he had gathered all the spirit medicine and made proper arrangements for his Lineage's affairs.
You can start replenishing your Spirit Root at any time.
Ye Jingcheng put away the Golden Sun Ganoderma and then continued up the mountain.
After setting up the Array, he distributed a large amount of elixirs and Spirit Beast meat to the other Spirit Beast to share.
Even the White-Brow Green Wolf was fed some Spirit Beast meat and a spirit pill.
However, after obtaining it, the White-Brow Green Wolf hid far away, especially away from Spirit Lake.
The Golden-Scaled Beast will only attack it!
But the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon will definitely try to steal it!
Ye Jingcheng didn't care about any of that at the moment. He landed inside the Array, his expression extremely solemn.
The method of replenishing spirit requires not only pure spiritual materials but also the application of Secret Method.
This Secret Method contains 108 spiritual incantations, each of which seems to be a composite incantation, making it extremely complex.
However, it's much easier to understand than the Treasure-Linking Art.
Upon thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng hesitated for a moment. Could this Secret Method for replenishing Spirit Root also be a spiritual technique like the Treasure-Linking Art?
After all, the Blood Soul Pearl's Treasure-Linking Art is for strengthening the Divine Soul, so it's normal that it's a bit difficult to understand.
Ye Jingcheng quickly shook his head; even with the Treasure-Linking Art, there was nothing he could do.
He took out the Jade Slip and began to compare it with the others one by one.
And soon he began to cultivate his first spiritual technique.
As he activated the spiritual technique, Ye Jingcheng felt a terrifying suction force emanating from his entire body.
This suction force doesn't draw in Spiritual Qi or Blood Qi True Essence, but rather a mysterious aura.
Ye Jingcheng was familiar with this aura; he had this feeling when testing the Spirit Root of immortal seedlings.
It seems that this spiritual technique activates the Spirit Root.
This further convinced Ye Jingcheng of the method of completion.
Ye Jingcheng did not continue cultivating, but instead began to study the following spiritual techniques.
Time passed quickly.
March passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Ye Jingcheng opened his eyes. He now knew all the spiritual techniques by heart, and like the Pill Formula, he had already completed the evolution.
He then proceeded to practice, just like refining elixirs; while he wouldn't be completely in control, he certainly wouldn't make any major mistakes.
After doing all this, Ye Jingcheng summoned the Crimson Flame Fox and took out the Heavenly Ox Azure-Red Furnace.
Surrounded by flames, the spirit furnace was successfully formed in an instant.
The Spirit Patterns Pill Furnace stirred, gathering the spiritual image of a blue-red celestial bull, which even raised its head and bellowed.
Ye Jingcheng added the auxiliary medicines one by one.
In no time, it was refined into a ball of crimson spiritual liquid.
Among these spirit medicine, there are both first-order and second-order ones. At this moment, the air is filled with a spiritual fragrance. Once they are processed into pills, there is a high probability that they will have pill patterns.
Ye Jingcheng took a deep breath and took out a Golden Sun Ganoderma. The most important ingredient for replenishing the spiritual liquid was this main ingredient. After all, there were many other spirit medicine, but there was only one of these pure gold spirit medicine.
Golden Sun Ganoderma was captured, and her entire body twisted and changed into various shapes.
After its agonizing struggles proved futile, tears welled up in its human-like eyes.
It was as if they were begging for mercy.
However, once the tear flowed out of the body, it turned into Metal Attribute Spiritual Qi and dissipated.
It was clearly a spiritual liquid formed from Spiritual Qi.
At the same time, Ye Jingcheng discovered that the Treasure Book within his body had also begun to emit spiritual light. It was astonishing that this transforming spirit medicine had begun to evolve into Wood Demon, and even had a breathing technique.
It also revealed a layer of Treasure Radiance, clearly indicating that it could advance once, which made Ye Jingcheng instantly overjoyed.
It's not that he would be merciful and let Jin Golden Sun Ganoderma go, but with the Treasure Radiance, Ye Jingcheng could test whether Golden Sun Ganoderma was alive or dead.
Ye Jingcheng directly condensed the wooden sword technique, then cut off most of the Golden Sun Ganoderma and put it into the Pill Furnace.
As the churning and surging Spirit Flame surged, it instantly began to transform into spiritual liquid.
The remaining small portion was directly placed into the prepared spiritual liquid by Ye Jingcheng.
This will allow the spirit medicine to continue to thrive.
Once he has some free time, you can use the Treasure Radiance to nourish him.
Perhaps they can return to their peak condition.
If this is feasible, countless members of the Ye Family will be able to complete their Spirit Root in the future.
After putting it away, Ye Jingcheng continued to focus all his efforts on refining the Spirit Replenishing Liquid.
Although this spiritual liquid is not labeled as being of a certain grade, its refining difficulty is definitely at least that of a high-grade third grade.
The Crimson Flame Fox also transformed into eight fox shadows, maintaining the heat from eight directions.
Without the slightest ripple, Golden Sun Ganoderma began to transform into spiritual liquid.
At this moment, there was still a rabbit shadow on the spiritual liquid, constantly leaping around in the Pill Furnace. It looked even more pitiful and kept kowtowing.
But after leaping several times, it transformed into Spiritual Qi and surged back into the spiritual liquid.
At this point, the spiritual liquid had changed from a crimson color to a pure gold color without anyone noticing.
And over time, it became golden and dazzling.
The lid of the Heavenly Furnace Green and Red Furnace also began to shake slowly, clearly indicating that the Spiritual Qi was too immense, even the third-tier Law Treasure Pill Furnace was struggling to withstand it.
This made Ye Jingcheng both happy and somewhat worried.
"Chirp!" As if sensing Ye Jingcheng's worry, the Crimson Flame Fox's eyes flashed with purple light again, and the next moment, a purple flame appeared on the lid of the Pill Furnace.
The purple flames that appeared were incredibly eerie, as if they had appeared out of thin air.
It instantly burned away some of the excess Spiritual Qi.
The churning Pill Furnace gradually subsided.
Once the Pill Furnace was under control, the purple flame vanished instantly, a truly miraculous event.
Even so, this will inevitably reduce the Spiritual Qi of the elixir or elixir.
But it won't explode.
After all, he only has one Golden Sun Ganoderma.
If this doesn't work, he won't be able to find a second Jinling object.
As time passed, a rich Pill Fragrance wafted out, transforming into golden spiritual mist that swirled above the Pill Furnace. It even began to evolve, taking the shape of a celestial beetle raising its head.
But there was still no cyan or red.
This made Ye Jingcheng overjoyed instantly.
With a wave of his hand, the lid of the Pill Furnace flew off.
The golden spiritual liquid inside also flew towards him.
This was also the first time he hadn't cleaned the furnace after refining the elixir.
As the golden spiritual liquid covered his body, a piercing sensation immediately followed.
Without hesitation, Ye Jingcheng immediately activated the Spirit Substitution Secret Method.
As he performed one incantation after another, a suction force appeared within his body.
His entire body was also enveloped in golden light.
The Crimson Flame Fox, watching this scene, was naturally puzzled, but it wouldn't do anything else without Ye Jingcheng's command.
They simply recalled all the phantoms.
It made two chirping sounds.
The Wood Demon in the distance also saw Ye Jingcheng now covered in golden light.
"Has Master also taken Advancement Pill?" After the Peachwood Demon, there was also the Stone Spirit.
Upon hearing what the Peachwood Demon said, the Golden-Scaled Beast, the Roc Fish, and the Jade-Scale Flood Dragon in the distance all looked over.
"Shut up!" the Crimson Flame Fox shouted, causing the Peachwood Demon to retreat in a huff.
This was originally its master, and it dared not overstep its bounds, especially since the Crimson Flame Fox also possessed a strange bluish-purple Spirit Flame.
The azure Spirit Flame cannot be extinguished, while the purple Spirit Flame is born from the heart and is impossible to defend against!
Of course, it's only at the second tier, and it's actually somewhat afraid of all beasts!
However, the Crimson Flame Fox is the most intimidating to it.
That's what it fears most.
As time passed, another ten days went by.
Ye Jingcheng opened his eyes, and a golden light fell out, then quickly dissipated into the air.
He did not get up immediately, but instead looked inward and saw that in addition to the Four Elements Heavenly Palace, there was now a small golden Ganoderma lucidum inside him.
The Ganoderma lucidum seemed to be growing inside his body, and it was slowly absorbing the Metal Attribute Spiritual Qi.
A smile appeared on Ye Jingcheng's face, and he took out the spirit-testing Spirit Stone again.
Although he could roughly sense Spirit Root, the best and most accurate method was still to test Spirit Stone.
As the spiritual power of the spirit-testing Spirit Stone surged through him, Ye Jingcheng saw five-colored spiritual light soar into the sky!
And the abundant blue aura rose and fell, each exceeding ten feet in height.
This scene also shocked Ye Jingcheng greatly.
His Water Spirit Root's spiritual light was over ten feet long, which is at the level of an unparalleled genius.
But you should know when he first tested his Spirit Root.
He's a little over half a foot tall, which is definitely not good.
But his surprise quickly disappeared, because the metal Spirit Root was not good, which meant that the other four elements were only due to the Beast Communion Spirit Beast and beasts.
If he expel all the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Beast Communion from his body, his Spirit Root will probably return to normal.
To Ye Jingcheng's surprise, the Golden Falcon's Spiritual Qi immediately rushed towards his Beast Communion.
All this Spiritual Qi surged through the Ganoderma lucidum, and most of it was absorbed.
This Ganoderma lucidum also appears to have become visibly thicker.
This means he is already able to absorb the Spiritual Qi of metal.
However, he needs to change his Cultivation Method as soon as possible, since the Golden Falcon's Spiritual Qi energy should be absolutely pure, and there should be no way that there is still a small portion that cannot be absorbed.
This only means he lacks the Cultivation Method to absorb the energy.
Being able to absorb even half of it is already an extremely miraculous feat, as the spirit image of the Ganoderma lucidum formed by the Spirit Substitution Method.
Ye Jingcheng stepped down from the platform but did not immediately begin modifying his Cultivation Method.
He's been in seclusion for almost half a year now.
He took out the Lineage Token, and found the answer inside.
Ye Xuecang has already compared the Five-Phase Heavenly Origin Scripture and the Five Spirit True Canon.
As a Golden Core cultivator, his vision was naturally far superior to Ye Jingcheng's.
The Jade Slip expounds on the advantages of the Five-Phase Heavenly Origin Scripture and the Five Spirit True Canon.
The former progresses smoothly without bottlenecks because the five elements transform into each other, but its drawback lies in the fact that if the balance is insufficient, it cannot break through.
The latter Five Spirit True Canon, possesses powerful Secret Method and formidable natal Law Treasure. Even when crafting Fourth Stage natal magic Law Treasure, its power is not insufficient.
At the same time, the performance of each aspect will be extremely outstanding, and Ye Jingcheng can even break through by cultivating only one spirit.
However, this requires a more refined concentration of True Essence, so cultivation should be slower on a daily basis.
However, breaking through to a higher realm is naturally much better.
However, to Ye Jingcheng's surprise, Ye Xuecang asked him to "cultivate both"!
However, this dual cultivation is different from cultivating both; it involves cultivating the Five Spirit True Canon while also transforming them, with the five elements mutually generating and restraining each other.
It's equivalent to simultaneously cultivating the Five Spirit True Canon while using the Five-Phase Heavenly Origin Scripture to constantly refine True Essence.
This method was something Ye Jingcheng hadn't expected.
But Ye Jingcheng also knew that Ye Xuecang was reminding him that he needed to pay attention to his cultivation speed now.
After all, if he cultivates too quickly, he's not suited to stay in the public eye.
Otherwise, the Taiyi Sect will discover it sooner or later.
Even if he is a spirit.
In addition, the Five Spirit True Canon is Cultivation Method practiced by the Five Elements True Lord, which is better than the Five-Phase Heavenly Origin Scripture.
Although the combination of the two is a bit slower, it will definitely be of great help to Ye Jingcheng's future.
Moreover, the Secret Method of the Five Spirit True Canon can be considered as third-tier Secret Method. If used at full power, even ordinary cultivators of the same tier would probably be unable to withstand them.
The Five Elements True Lord also became famous for a time thanks to his powerful Secret Method.
These Secret Method are: Fire Spirit Secret Art Vermilion Bird True Flame - Burning Heaven; Water Spirit Secret Method Black Tortoise Water - Divine Wrath; Wood Spirit Secret Method Azure Dragon Divine Light - Rebirth; Earth Spirit Secret Method Qilin Mysterious Earth - True Palace; and Jinling Secret Method White Tiger Punishment Sword - Breaking Kill.
Thinking of this, Ye Jingcheng also prepared to follow Ye Xuecang's advice and begin his cultivation soon.
After reading the news about the transfer for repairs, Ye Jingcheng looked at other messages.
What delighted Ye Jingcheng was that Ye Jingyu had broken through to the Purple Mansion, adding another Purple Mansion cultivator to the Ye Family.
Meanwhile, on Soaring Cloud Peak's side, Ye Xing shui also broke through to the Foundation Establishment ahead of schedule.
That's two pieces of good news.
Besides, the Ye Family has completely taken control of Idle Cloud Mountain, and the Turtle Ancestor has even secretly checked on it, so the Wei Family hasn't tried anything funny.
Next, he can take Chu Yanqing back to Idle Cloud Mountain and let her see the former Chu Lineage mountain.
This slightly lessened Chu Yanqing's Heart Demon.
Meanwhile, the Lineage restaurant is almost ready and will open soon, just waiting for him to go to Great Prosperity Market.
The restaurants in Great Prosperity Market are currently the key to the Ye Family's rise to power.
Meanwhile, Ye Jingteng should have made most of the contact, and with Ye Jingcheng handling the wedding arrangements, there's no need to worry about the restaurant's business.
