Tang Changsheng had used the Five-Element Origin Force to drive the power of the Reversed Five Elements Annihilation Formation inside the White Jade Alchemy Furnace, landing a vicious blow on the Black Flood Dragon.
He had thought the strike would at least leave the Black Flood Dragon badly wounded, if it did not kill him outright. But the creature's hide was tougher than Tang Changsheng had imagined. He had escaped with only a minor injury.
That bit of Five-Element Origin Force had been anything but easy to obtain. Tang Changsheng knew he would need it to establish his Cave Abode...
Even if he wanted to become a True Immortal one day, he would need to undergo Ritual Refinement with Five-Element Origin Force.
Yet such a thing was generally found only in the Cave-Heavens of Earth Immortals, or in the hands of certain Deities. There was very little of it, and obtaining it was exceedingly difficult.
Only powers on the level of the Nine Great Immortal Sects had much to spare. In places like the Dragon Palace Sea Market or even Immortal-Fate City, buying Five-Element Origin Force came down to luck.
And the price was high enough to make a man cough blood...
Tang Changsheng still had a little left after establishing his Cave Abode last time, but he did not dare squander it.

The two people Lu Yuanzhen had rescued had clearly been corroded all over by the Black Flood Dragon's poisonous breath. The poison had sunk deep into them, and they looked ready to breathe their last at any moment.
Even their Yin Spirits had been corroded. They could not escape
