Chapter 507: Chapter 202 Exploration of the Five Elements Wood Hall (Two in One)
Li Mingwu snorted coldly after listening,
“Hmph!”
“I know Ling Yin’s injuries best. When I injured him, he was almost at death’s door, and there was no way he could have survived.”
“Ling Yin was asking for trouble, opposing me like that. His fate was his own making.”
“It’s just unfortunate that he escaped back then. Escaping would have been fine, but what’s most infuriating is that he took the Five Elements Fire Command with him when he ran away.”
After listening, Xue Yilin hesitated for a moment before speaking up,
“Senior Li, so much time has passed by now, it’s probably even harder to find that Five Elements Fire Command.”
“We’re likely going to need to put in quite an effort.”
Li Mingwu, upon hearing this, spoke directly,
“If that Five Elements Fire Command really can’t be found, then let’s not look for it for the time being…”
“As long as we obtain the other tokens, we can infer the location of that Five Elements Fire Command based on the connection between the tokens.”
“To deduce the position of the Five Elements Fire Command, we need to gather at least three Five Elements Commands, and the price we have to pay is not small.”
“However, the price to compute its position is too high, and unless it’s absolutely necessary, I don’t wish to use divination to find it…”
“For now, we should still try our best to look for it.”
Upon hearing this, Xue Yilin nodded and said,
“Understood, senior…”
Lin Jing couldn’t help but frown when he heard their conversation, not expecting that the Five Elements Command could be located through divination.
Luckily, Lin Jing had come along this time and eavesdropped on this news; otherwise, he might have been caught off guard if Li Mingwu had suddenly found him one day.
“No…”
“I can’t keep carrying the Five Elements Fire Command with me from now on.”
Lin Jing immediately resolved not to keep the Five Elements Fire Command in his Space Ring anymore. After all, the Five Elements Command was too special, and its position could be inferred using other tokens.
He didn’t want to be caught off guard.
However,
though he couldn’t keep it in the Space Ring, he could place it in the System Space.
Lin Jing didn’t fully understand the existence of the System Space, but its function was so powerful, far surpassing the Five Elements Command by more than one level, that it could surely avoid detection through divination.
Lin Jing didn’t believe Li Mingwu could deduce the existence of the System Space.
Afterward, Lin Jing made a decision in his heart,
“Hmm…”
“As soon as I get out, I’ll put the Five Elements Fire Command in the System Space, and they’ll never be able to deduce it no matter how hard they try.”
Then,
Lin Jing looked again towards the two individuals.
By now, the two had used the same method to activate the formations on two other platforms.
Within one of the formations was a Pure Elixir, the Soul Condensing Pills.
The other platform contained a Water System Technique, which Li Mingwu gave to Xue Yilin.
After obtaining the items from the three platforms, Li Mingwu and his companion didn’t leave but continued to converse.
Xue Yilin, holding the Jade Slip of the Water System Technique, first examined it and then spoke up to ask Li Mingwu,
“Senior Li…”
“Each of these five halls contains a Cultivation Technique. I wonder if the one inside the central Five-Element Divine Temple is the final Five Elements Cultivation Technique?”
Li Mingwu looked towards the central platform and nodded slightly,
“If I’m not mistaken, it should be the last Five Elements Cultivation Technique.”
“But I’m not interested in that Five Elements Cultivation Technique…”
Xue Yilin, puzzled, asked,
“Why?”
Li Mingwu explained,
“That Five Elements Cultivation Technique is indeed excellent, but it requires a Cultivator with the Five Elements Spiritual Root to cultivate it to achieve the best effect.”
“Unlike the times of antiquity or the far ancient era, when Spiritual Energy was dense and there were many kinds of Spirit Plants and immortal liquids that could enhance one’s Spiritual Root.”
“As for now…”
“Spiritual Herb Elixirs capable of improving the quality of a Spiritual Root have almost disappeared. Possessing the Five Elements, that is to say, a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root, makes cultivation exceptionally difficult. Without the support of Elixir Medicines to improve one’s qualities, even if one practices the Five Elements Cultivation Technique, achievements won’t be very high.”
“If a person with other Spiritual Root qualities cultivates it, it would only slow down their own cultivation speed, which would be worse than cultivating other techniques.”
After listening, Xue Yilin nodded,
“I see. It seems that the Five Elements Cultivation Technique isn’t all that remarkable after all. It isn’t even as good as this Water System Technique I have.”
Li Mingwu shook his head and said,
“If that technique had appeared in earlier times, it would definitely have been a top-tier technique, causing countless powerful forces to compete for it.”
“But now, the Spiritual Energy in the entire cultivation world is sparse, and there’s a severe shortage of rare resources. Without enough resources to support it, you can’t cultivate the Five Elements Cultivation Technique too highly, and it seems somewhat pointless.”
“It’s not that the technique isn’t good; it’s just that times have changed…”
After hearing this, Xue Yilin was silent for a while and then spoke up,
“What if someone truly managed to cultivate that Five Elements Cultivation Technique to Divinity Transformation, or even to the physical embodiment stage?”
“Senior Li, do you think there’s a chance of that happening?”
Li Mingwu, after listening, pondered for a moment before speaking,
“If someone really managed to cultivate that Five Elements Cultivation Technique to Divinity Transformation or the embodiment stage, then only two possibilities exist…”
“Either this person has the support of a top-tier powerful force behind them, with unconditional, limitless resources, or,”
“the person has profound luck and carries astonishing secrets…”
“Those are the only two possibilities…”
“This…” Xue Yilin was about to say something when he suddenly noticed that Li Mingwu’s face had drastically changed.
Even the energy around his body began to fluctuate violently.
Li Mingwu quickly sat down cross-legged and took out an Elixir Medicine from his Space Ring and put it in his mouth before closing his eyes and starting to meditate.
