This is simply a step to the top!
You know, how many talented and stunning Qi Refining Perfection monks were eliminated from the Heavenly Examination class and wasted half their lives unable to obtain the Foundation Establishment qualification, and eventually died of old age in the Qi Refining class.
This road is so important.
Supervisor Chen looked at the excited Chu Bai and continued to drop bombshells, "Not only that, those who get Immortal Official Status are half a level higher than those Ordinary Official Status who came from Heavenly Examination. In the future career of Dao Path, this half-level difference is often a world of difference."
"Of course, these are still too far for you now." Supervisor Chen waved his hand and brought the topic back on track, "The most important thing right now is your Dao Foundation."
His expression became serious. "Since you have chosen the Five Phases path, there are some things that I have to tell you."
"Five Phases fellow practitioner, if he just wants to collect five attributes, even if he barely Foundation Establishment, he will be nothing more than [Unsteady Root]. His aura is mixed, and although it is stronger than a single practitioner, he can only be regarded as a Miscellaneous Order among Foundation Establishment, or he can barely reach the threshold of Side Order."
"If you stop here, it will be a waste of your talent."
Supervisor Chen stretched out his finger and drew a circle in the void. "On top of it, there is a Unorthodox Dao Foundation named [Five Virtues Chariot].
With this base of 10%, you can enjoy the characteristic blessings of the five spiritual energies of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth at the same time, with various methods, and you are already Higher Vehicle."
"But if you want to truly stand at the top..."
Supervisor Chen's eyes flashed with light, and he said word by word, "Then you must obtain Orthodox Dao Foundation--[Cosmic Cycle Wheel]!"
"Cosmic Cycle Wheel?" Chu Bai muttered to himself.
"That's right. Five Phases are mutually reinforcing, endless, like the stars in the sky, circling back and forth, never drying up.
If this foundation is completed, your total spiritual power, recovery speed, and Spell Arts power will all reach a terrifying level. This is the real thing - invincible at the same level!"
"It's just that this road is extremely difficult. Five Phases Reciprocity is easy to say, but it's scary to do every step of the way.
If there is a slight mistake, Five Phases will be in chaos, and the meridians will be shattered. Dao Academy For a hundred years, few people even know the existence of this road."
Supervisor Chen looked at Chu Bai and said sincerely, "Those who seek for the top will get it, and those who seek for the top will get the bottom. Now that you have embarked on this path, you must focus on [Cosmic Cycle Wheel] to cultivate! Even if it doesn't work in the end, taking a step back and becoming [Five Virtues Chariot] will be enough to be proud of your peers."
Chu Bai took a deep breath and felt his blood boiling.
Invincible at the same level, Cosmic Cycle Wheel!
This is the path he wants to pursue!
"Thank you very much for your teachings. The students will do their best!" Chu Bai bowed deeply.
"Yeah." Supervisor Chen nodded, and then began to point out the specific details of practice, "The reason why I let you practice Metal Energy first is because metal generates water. You already have a water element foundation in your body. Introducing Metal Energy will not only not conflict, but can nourish water with metal and solidify the foundation."
"After Innate Geng Metal Qi accumulates in your body to a certain extent and reaches a balance with water vapor, the next step is to 'aquatic wood'."
Supervisor Chen thought for a while and gave a suggestion, "Since you have chosen Innate Geng Metal Qi, who is strong and evil-destroying, and Pure Bathing Spirit Flow, who is of the water attribute and is more gentle Purification, then you need someone with extremely strong vitality to take over the aura of the wood attribute."
"Among the Spirit Pavilion, there is one [Withered-and-Flourishing Azure Qi], which was produced when the thousand-year-old Mu Ku came back from the dead. It contains the meaning of prosperity and prosperity, and its tenacious vitality is rare in the world. It is the best choice."
"When you Metal Energy complete your cultivation, then go find this Qi."
Withered-and-Flourishing Azure Qi...
Chu Bai kept these four words in mind and bowed again. "Student understands. I will definitely live up to the high expectations of the prison."
"Go." Supervisor Chen waved his hand, "Remember, you choose the road yourself, and you have to walk it on your knees."
Chu Bai straightened up and exited Supervisor's Office with firm eyes.
Outside the door, the sun is shining brightly.
But he knew that what he was going to take next was a road destined to be full of thorns, but also full of infinite possibilities.
Target locked: [Cosmic Cycle Wheel]!
After leaving the Deacon Hall, Chu Bai did not return directly to the value room, but turned around and went to another important place of the Dao Academy - Spell Transmission Pavilion.
This is a simple three-story wooden building with raised eaves and gently ringing wind chimes. Different from the oppressive spiritual pressure of the Spirit Pavilion, Spell Transmission Pavilion is surrounded by a faint fragrance of ink and a quiet Daoist charm, which makes people's minds calm down involuntarily.
The freshman who ranks first in this major exam, in addition to the enviable three hundred hours Grade A Blessed Land, also has an extremely practical reward: he can choose any Spell Arts on the second floor of the Spell Transmission Pavilion.
Chu Bai stepped inside and showed his identity plate to the elder guarding the pavilion. The old man glanced at him with turbid eyes, nodded slightly, and pointed to the wooden ladder leading to the second floor.
The space on the second floor is not large, surrounded by rows of Jade Slip suspended in mid-air. Each Jade Slip is wrapped in a faint layer of forbidden light, with different colors, representing different Five Phases attributes.
Chu Bai walked among them, his eyes swept over each Jade Slip, but he was making quick calculations in his mind.
"I don't lack defense, nor do I lack control."
Looking back on these battles, whether he faced Dong Feng or Shadow Beast, his "Formless Cloud Hand" combined with "Origin Guard Shield" provided a watertight defense.
Although "Spirit Water Needle" has a large number, its advantages are its wide coverage and strong control. It is indeed useful for clearing out miscellaneous soldiers or harassing them. However, it seems to be somewhat inadequate when facing a single strong enemy with thick skin and amazing defense.
In the last battle of the Illusion Realm, if he hadn't suddenly thought out and forcibly condensed hundreds of Spirit Water Needle into a gun, he might not have been able to break through the defense of Qi Refining Third Layer Shadow Beast.
"My advantage lies in the huge amount of Spell Power brought by "Origin Return Formula", and the terrifying resilience given by [Food Injury Leaks Elegance]. Even if it is a war of attrition, I am not afraid of anyone."
Chu Bai secretly analyzed, "But my current shortcomings are also obvious - I lack the killing skills to determine the outcome with one blow."
Now that [Innate Geng Metal Qi] has been introduced into the body, choosing a gold attack technique is undoubtedly the most cost-effective choice.
He walked straight to the area emitting light golden light.
Touch each Jade Slip with your fingertips, and the brief introduction information will come to mind.
[Metal-Rending Claw]: The technique of imitating the shape of an animal, turning the hands into sharp claws of gold and iron, and the power of close combat is astonishing.
This requires close combat. Although it is powerful, it is not only easy to get injured, but also has some overlap with the style of "Formless Cloud Hand".
[White Rainbow Piercing the Sun Sword]: Flying Sword is required as a matchmaker. After completion, Sword Qi is like a rainbow and can take the head of a person a hundred steps away.
That's good, but he doesn't have a decent Flying Sword magical weapon at hand right now. If he uses ordinary iron, he might not be able to withstand his Spell Power.
Moreover, sword cultivation consumes a lot of energy, so I won't consider it for now.
Chu Bai Continue reading backwards.
Suddenly, his eyes rested on a Jade Slip that was dark gold in color and looked quite ancient.
[Golden Eye Illusion-Breaker]
This is a rather special... pupil technique?
Chu Bai penetrates the mind and examines the detailed introduction.
[Golden Eye Illusion-Breaker]: It is necessary to introduce Metal Energy into the meridians of the eyes. After the cultivation, the eyes can glow golden.
Normally, it can detect illusions and gain insight into the flow of energy; when it triggers a killing spree, it can instantly compress Metal Energy's body into its two pupils and shoot out two 'illusion-breaking golden lights'. This light is indestructible and is designed to break through the protective Gang Qi and Divine Soul barriers.
Note: This technique is extremely explosive, but it places a huge load on the meridians, and a single activation will drain out more than 30% of the user's spiritual power reserve. Choose carefully!
"Take 30% of your time Spell Power?"
Seeing this side effect, ordinary monks would probably be persuaded to quit immediately. In a life-and-death fight, 30% of spiritual power was suddenly lost. If the opponent was not killed instantly, wouldn't he become a lamb to be slaughtered?
But for Chu Bai, it turned out to be an advantage!
"Thirty percent spiritual power in exchange for the ultimate single-target explosion..." A hint of joy flashed in Chu Bai's eyes.
What he lacks most is spiritual power!
As long as I carry Spirit Cuisine Pills with me, even if I empty the blue bar, I can fill it up faster than others. This is simply a magical skill tailor-made for him who has the "infinite battery life" tack!
Moreover, this Spell Arts not only does damage, but its passive effect of "exploring illusions and discerning energy" is also extremely practical. In the future, if you encounter phantom formations like those set up by the prison, or enemies who are good at hiding, these eyes will be the best radar.
"Innate Geng Metal Qi is designed to destroy evil and kill evil. If you use this energy to activate this [Golden Eye Illusion-Breaker], the power will probably reach a higher level."
Chu Bai no longer hesitated, stretched out his hand and grabbed the dark gold Jade Slip.
"It's you."
As a stream of light disappeared between the brows, complicated and obscure cultivation methods instantly flooded into my mind. Chu Bai felt that his eyes were slightly hot, as if he had already felt the sharp intention that was about to be born.
At this point, he finally completed the last piece of the puzzle in Qi Refining Early-Stage's combat system.
There is Cloud Hand for protection nearby, water needles for field control in the distance, and golden eyes for sure kill.
"The next step is to go to the Spirit Pavilion to learn this pupil technique."
Chu Bai raised the corners of his mouth slightly, turned around and strode away from the Spell Transmission Pavilion.
Time flies by like a white horse, and in a blink of an eye it is more than a month.
Spirit Pavilion, Grade A Blessed Land.
In the small world filled with Chaos mist, Chu Bai sat cross-legged on the central stone platform, with the aura around him as calm as an abyss.
As the last week of "Origin Return Formula" ended, he slowly opened his eyes.
If anyone looked carefully at this moment, they would be surprised to find that in the depths of his originally deep and dark pupils, there was a flash of extremely pure pale golden light.
Although they are usually silent and hard to detect, once they look at each other attentively, they will feel a sharpness as if they were being stared at by a sharp blade.
"Finally... it has reached scale."
Chu Bai Inside view Dantian.
In the air sea, next to the light blue Spell Power vortex that originally dominated the air, there was now a condensed golden air ball.
Although this group of Metal Energy is not as vast as the water attribute Spell Power, it is superior in that it is of extremely high quality. The strands are gathered together, like a peerless magic weapon that has not yet been sheathed. It is firmly rooted on the side of Dantian, clearly distinct from the water attribute Spell Power, but vaguely at peace with each other.
"This is Innate Geng Metal Qi."
Chu Bai Feeling the strong and evil-destroying power, I felt quite satisfied.
Over the past month, he has been practicing in the Spirit Pavilion for three hours every day, consuming a hundred hours of blessed land quota.
The rewards for such a luxurious investment are staggering.
Not only has the foundation of Metal Element in his body been established, but more importantly, under the nourishment of that rich spiritual energy, his cultivation level is also rising rapidly.
Chu Bai stood up, dusted off the non-existent dust on his robe, crushed the talisman and teleported out of the tower.
As soon as Spirit Pavilion came out, there was a familiar thunderous sound in my belly.
High-intensity training is accompanied by high-intensity consumption, and even an iron-clad body cannot withstand it. Chu Bai didn't hesitate at all, and with the wind at his feet, he went straight to the second floor of the cafeteria.
"Master Li, it's the same as usual! Two servings of 'Red-Blood Savage Bull Meat', plus one more cup of 'Qi-Boosting Ginseng Soup'!"
After finishing the meal skillfully, Chu Bai found a corner to sit down.
In the past month, his expenses on food have been like water. The two Dao Merit points he earns from doing prison tasks every day will basically turn into Spirit Cuisine and go into his stomach that day.
But it is precisely because of this kind of "eating" regardless of the cost that he supports his terrifying cultivation speed.
After a while, the wind and clouds cleared.
As the last mouthful of ginseng soup enters the abdomen, the warm current instantly spreads into the limbs and bones. [Food Injury Leaks Elegance] Fate Destiny immediately operates, efficiently converting these food essences into pure cultivation and physical strength.
Chu Bai Close his eyes Breath Regulation for a moment, and when the feeling of fullness subsides, he gets up and walks out of the canteen.
It was mid-afternoon and the sun was warm.
"It's another practical class in the afternoon... Those guys seem to be a little itchy recently and need to make some preparations."
Chu Bai was thinking, and with a thought, he summoned the translucent panel that only he could see.
[Name: Chu Bai]
[Realm: Qi Refining Second Layer(27/100)]
[Exercise method: Origin Return Formula (Mastery 459/500)]
[Skill:]
[Spirit Water Needle(Mastery 290/500)]
[Formless Cloud Hand(Mastery 137/200)]
[Origin Guard Shield(Mastery 32/500)]
[Golden Eye Illusion-Breaker(Getting Started 62/100)]
Looking at this series of gorgeous information, Chu Bai couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
The first and most critical thing is naturally the realm.
Qi Refining Second Layer, progress 27%!
This is simply a jaw-dropping speed. You know, it only took him more than a month to break through Qi Refining Second Layer.
If you were an ordinary student, even a Aristocratic Clan student like Dong Feng, after reaching Qi Refining Second Layer, it would take several days of polishing to improve your progress.
According to common sense in the world of immortality, the higher the realm, the greater the amount of spiritual energy required, and the slower the cultivation speed will naturally be.
But he is different.
First of all, [Food Injury Leaks Elegance]Fate Destiny is subtly improving his physical qualifications under the nourishment of Spirit Cuisine day after day; secondly, he "cheats" and practices for three hours every day in a paradise like Spirit Pavilion, and his efficiency is ten times that of the outside world; coupled with his tireless liver emperor attribute...
With a multi-pronged approach, his cultivation conditions are now more than a hundred times better than when he was at the Azure Cloud Academy Qi Refining First Layer?
"If I continue at this rate, it will only take me three or four months to reach the threshold of Qi Refining Third Layer."
Chu Bai is thinking secretly in his heart.
In addition to the realm, the improvement on Spell Arts is also gratifying.
"Origin Guard Shield" After many Combat Training and deliberate practice, I finally broke through the proficiency and entered the [mastery] level.
Now, with a wave of his hand, he can condense a spiritual shield with stronger defense and the ability to flow according to his will. It is no longer a rigid piece.
As for the newly learned "Golden Eye Illusion-Breaker"...
Although he is still in the [Introductory] stage, this is not because Chu Bai is lazy, it is because this pupil technique consumes too much mana. Even with his recovery power, practicing it several times a day will make his eyes sore.
But even so, being able to reach more than half of the entry level in just one month is enough to be superior to most monks. After all, eye skills are difficult to cultivate, and ordinary people would still be exploring the meridians.
"The reward for this half-year exam is indeed very rewarding for me."
Chu Bai clenched his fists, feeling the power rushing through his body.
"When I have completely digested the remaining two hundred hours and mastered "Golden Eye Illusion-Breaker"... at that time, my strength will truly usher in a qualitative leap!"
"Five-Element Impermanent Root... no, it's Cosmic Cycle Wheel!"
Chu Bai's eyes flashed with golden light, and he strode towards Martial Training Ground.
